Re: alsa troubles

[Jude DaShiell <jdashiel@panix.com>]

To resolve this kind of problem I recommend finding each alsa package 
installed on that machine then have aptitude install each of them but 
put the -r switch on the end of that install command.  That will install 
recommended packages and once done this problem may disappear.
