I have been so busy I haven't been able to get back to this dog.  I
still may need the Audio IC, but I don't know.  Right now the audio
works 95% of the time and the only way to get it to come back on when it
does fail is to turn the volume up a little.

Kevin,
        Am I to assume your all set on the Zenith and have no need for
the
audio chip?
