I am afraid I can't help you with those error messages (maybe someone else more knowledgeable can help you with that), but I can help you find the Alsa mixer (which you will need to know anyway): In FC4 under Gnome the ALSA mixer is under the menu: Applications -> Sound & Video -> Volume Control The get the sound to work on my system I had to do the following in the Alsa Mixer: Edit->Preferences tick "External Amplifier" Then go to the "Switches" tab in the alsa mixer and tick "External Amplifier" Though note that I had sound coming through the headphones before, so this was just to get it through the speakers. If you don't get sound through the headphone you're having a different problem.
