I have a SoundBlaster Live! (snd_emu10k1) on my fresh Slackware install, upgraded to kernel 2.6.12. I can get alsaconf to detect the card, but the necessary devices aren't there. I can mknod /dev/dsp, /dev/mixer, /dev/sequencer, and /dev/midi. This will allow rexima to work to increase the volume and mpg321 will play sound. However, mpg321 throws up a ton of alsa errors in the process.
Code:
gort32@aerandir:~$ mpg321 /tmp/Welcome_to_the_Internet_Helpdesk.mp3

xmms gives a scarier error:
Code:
gort32@aerandir:~$ xmms
*** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0xb778fd79 ***

alsactl store gives the error:
Code:

Does anyone have any additional ideas to try?
