kde uses oss by default, try to set arts to use ALSA in the KControl

alsa and adding snd-mixer-oss and snd-pcm-oss to you /etc/modules
file. it worked for me. i have the same sound card :) another hint....
dont use kde or gnome :P
Thanks for the info. Did you possibly confuse me with another post? I
posted about a media player problem
with movie trailer and clips which is now resolved. Perhaps you are
saying that the sound is part of the problem?
I had to use ALSA-OSS on a previous testing version of sarge to get
sound working on my YMF724F card but sound
worked right out of the box on sarge stable, so, I think I'll stay with
it unless I start having problems. Regarding KDE,
I prefer a GUI over a console. I only use konsole for upgrading and
troubleshooting and file location. Perhaps I'm being cced on someone
else's post. I do know a person who has a sound issue with his card
using sarge testing but
it's no a Yamaha card. I'll keep your suggestions in mind just in
case. It sounds just like what i had to do on sarge testing to get
sound going.
