The sound server will continue, using the null output device."

this error appears when running system-config-soundcard
my card is an Audigy emuk10,I have not tried other sound sources (xmms)
yet.

Hmmm
I was able to get XMMS to play WAV files after selecting ESD as the
output system, but could not get Gnome to play the WAV sounds. I
switched to KDE and it plays sounds well.
Even though I had all the sound levels cranked up the line in level
was not very loud. While trying to get my scanner to work I started
scanimage and the volume jumped up. For what ever reason scanimage
decided to use my video capture card because it couldn't find my
scanner.
In Gnome the mixer shows way too many volume controls. Many appear to
be duplicates and some don't move. In KDE the mixer seems to show the
correct number of mixer controls and they all seem to work.
When i did an lsmod as root, I noticed that the OSS compatibility
module was loaded. The reason I mention it, was I had originally
thought Gnome had been compiled with OSS support rather than ALSA
support. Since the OSS module is loaded it shouldn't matter which one
it was compiled with I would think.
The sound on the computer with the problems has an on-board {ASUS-P4PE}
SoundMax {ADI198x AC97 codec}. I wonder if it is somehow stuck in
surround sound mode. When I get home tonight I will try hooking the
speakers to the line in and mic jacks to see if it is sending sound
to those ports {that is where the centre/sub and surround outputs are
when in surround mode}.
ha, found the solution for my sound-problem... i had to try the other
jacks... thank you for this hint!

Maybe the updated libgnome-2.6.0-3 can help,doesn't work for me including
installing arjvans 2.6.6.1-5 kernel.xmms works ok but not kde still....
