My Sound card in a laptop is a VIA Tech, "VIA High Definition Audio
Controller" and all the drivers are loading but it has no sound.
I have heard through the Grapvine that the PCM device VT1708 was broken
in 2.6.24, any truth to that ?
The Soundcard Detection debug files are listed below,   scsrun.log and
scsconfig.log.
Who can read and understand these two files.

Hi Jim. As I'm totally obsessed by pulseaudio causing sound problems on F8, I'd suggest removing the alsa-plugins-pulseaudio package, then see if the sound works.

Just a shot in the dark, and maybe I've got pulseaudio on the brain, but other folks have got their sounds up by removing that package.

Nigel.

I deleted the alsa-plugins-pulseaudio package but that didn't help at all.
There is a check box in Soundcard Detection app that allows you to disable the Alsa plugins.

Thanks for your help

The check box is irrelevant in my opinion. But with the
alsa-plugins-pulseaudio rpm removed you should not get any pulseaudio
eroros. So what is happening now?
Is the card detected? Is the test sound heard?

There are many of us who have been through this sound failure problem.
Has alsamixer been run? And so on.. --

I did remove the alsa-plugins-pulseaudio and checked alsa-mixer, but to no avail, rebooted box and sound still doesn't work.
sound does not work:

When you say sound does not work do you mean:
1. You sound card is not detected?
2. the test sound does not play, even when you specifically load driver
modules in the gui.

3. Does lsmod show the sound modules loaded?
