Hi,

I'm posting this because I don't know where to begin looking. I have done a few searches, and it seems to be alles in ordnung, but things still aren't working.

To explain, I have a SBLive emu10k1 card in my sid workstation. All was fine until a few weeks ago:

05:01.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Live! EMU10k1 (rev 07)

The drivers are installed and loaded:

snd_emu10k1_synth      13016  0
snd_emux_synth         29075  1 snd_emu10k1_synth

emu10k1_gp             12494  0
gameport               13649  2 emu10k1_gp

...however, alsamixer shows the card and chip being PulseAudio for playback, and KDE shows the output as "dummy" and nothing in the capture device. There seems to be a disconnect between pulse and alsa, and it only cropped up a couple of weeks ago.

How do I get pulseaudio talking to the SBLive and get sound back to my workstation?

Thanks,

What I usually do is remove pulseaudio and it works afterwards.
