Re: Stopping kernel 2.6/discover loading Alsa and OSS

i've not used discover, but hotplug may be what's loading your sound

Ok, will do, I always figured that hotplug, is only responsable for USB devices and not hardware detection.

my system seems to have a /etc/hotplug/blacklist.d/alsa_base file which
lists all the oss drivers to keep them from loading.  maybe you can
install the alsa-base package and get your system to use alsa (and oss
emulation) only.

I have alsa-base installed, but will check the blacklist directory and disable discover, if hotplug now does hardware detection.
