There must be something either in the modules.conf configuration (I used alsaconf) or a difference in audio HW that causes this. Perhaps there is some lingering issue in the alsa/oss/esd emulation layers that is still problematic. > > I had this same problem with xmms if I used the OSS output plugin > > instead of the ESD plug-in.

That was a problem before installing alsa, when I used either OSS or ESD in xmms.

I participate in another set of lists for a stats/math application called R. Any time someone sends some code in an e-mail looking for assistance where I can be of help, I have to copy the code and then reformat it in xemacs, since it comes over as one long line. I can live without the sound, but I can't tell you how much time I have lost on the C&P issue. I am pretty sure that it has been fixed in Evo's CVS, so I am not sure why a fix has not yet been incorporated into an update for FC, unless there are some dependency issues that have not been resolved.
