Re: Getting Ensoniq 5880 soundcard to work again after 2.4 to 2.6 kernel upgrade.

Some more potential diagnostic information.  While I was messing with
modprobe, the following appeared in syslog:

Feb 25 17:23:52 garcia kernel: usbaudio: dma timed out??
Feb 25 17:43:29 garcia kernel: unable to register OSS mixer device 0:0

Feb 25 17:45:21 garcia devfsd[424]: error stat(2)ing: "sound/dsp1"^INo such file or directory

So I assume that something wants /dev/sound/mixer1 and /dev/sound/dsp,
whereas I actually have the following.

$ ls -l /dev/sound/*
crw-rw----  1 root audio 14, 12 1970-01-01 01:00 /dev/sound/adsp
crw-rw----  1 root audio 14,  9 1970-01-01 01:00 /dev/sound/dmmidi
crw-rw----  1 root audio 14,  3 1970-01-01 01:00 /dev/sound/dsp
crw-rw----  1 root audio 14,  2 1970-01-01 01:00 /dev/sound/midi
crw-rw----  1 root audio 14,  0 1970-01-01 01:00 /dev/sound/mixer

Any suggestions on identifying and resolving this conflict?

Thanks,
Adam
