HI All
I got this problem after installing FC2: The sound played fine on the initial test (just after installation) but after fedora started no sound would play. I went to soundcard detection and retested and it would not play.
Carlo, Check out your /etc/modprobe.conf file, it should have the following lines:
# Entry for nVidia AC-97 integrated audio
#alias snd-card-0 nvaudio
# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116* snd
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
# OSS portion
alias char-major-14* soundcore
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
# AC-97 sound card (on motherboard)
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
options snd cards_limit=1
install snd-intel8x0 /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-intel8x0 && \
/usr/sbin/alsactl restore > /dev/null 2>&1 || :
remove snd-intel8x0 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store > /dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; \
/sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-intel8x0
I have an nForce 2 chipset as well and this works for me.
You may want to execute the "/usr/sbin/alsactl store" by hand after you initially configure the card and have it working so that you will restore a working configuration after each reboot....
