You can't configure it using draksound? I don't know if I can be any help here since I've NOT had too much trouble with soundcards under sndconfig since RH5.0. You *should* hear "This is Linus Torvalds and I pronounce Linux...Linux." Can you play a wav file after sndconfig squawks at you? For example [clundst@workstation clundst]$ play sounds/kick_a.wav Maybe *just* the midi driver is working/broken... Are you in X or at the console? I seem to recall having problems with xmms using the soundcard because KDE had usurped the device. Is that what is going on? (Drop to console and try the play <filename>.wav) What sound card is it?
