Personally, and not wishing to knock Lennart's Pulseaudio, which I'm sure 
quite a lot of folks have found usefull. All the same though, I think I'd 
temporarily remove the alsa-plugins-pulseaudio package, then see if sounds 
work as expected.

Pulseaudio, installed as default on F8 appears to have caused problems for 
some folks, including myself, and removing alsa-plugins-pulseaudio got my 
sounds back as they were before on previous Fedora versions.

2¢ worth of nothing perhaps.

Nigel.
