OK, next gripe. It detects my hardware, loads modules, I've used

turn up the volume, I've checked settings under aumix, nothing.
There's no longer a "volume control" menu item under "Sound & Video"
or I would have tried that.
Not even a decent error message. system-config-soundcard says it found
a VIA VT8233/A 8235/8237 AC87 Audio Controller and used module
snd_via82xx. Hitting the 'play test sound' button produces the
following output in the terminal window:

Motherboard is an ECS K7VTA3.
Suggestions?
Dave,
i have sound.
People have been talking about muting this or that in alsamixer. Well,
as a "one last time, i'll check this thing out".
Well, i didn't have to change any mute settings, but i did change the
item "IEC958" from "analog" to "digital". This item is 19 to the right
of start in alsamixer.
i don't know enough to say if your settings' listings will be the same
on another card, but i now have sound for the first time in a few weeks.
i am very relieved :)
Where else should i make sure this info can be found?
On the alsa site, also an email to fedoranews.org, fedoraforum.org or the fedora
community portal (fcp.homelinux.org) would all be excellent suggestions.
Moreover bugzilla redhat to add this into the documentation/fix list for fc4,
which is the next release.
