nVidia nForce2 Ultra 400 chipset audio not working.
Hello,
I just recently bought and installed an Abit NF7-S2 motherboard, and I'm having the worst time trying to get the onboard audio working. On the first boot after installing the new board (my previous motherboard was an Abit NF7-M), it actually located the onboard audio, and configured it. But on the next reboot, it was showing that the onboard audio was not working.
I removed the onboard audio from YaST, and tried re-detecting the onboard audio... It has not re-detected the onboard audio since that very first boot. The bizarre thing is that this motherboard uses the same audio chipset as my previous motherboard, and I NEVER had an issue out of the audio on my previous board...
I have even gone as far as flashing the BIOS to the latest revision with no success. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike H.

I've tried that... It correctly builds the nvaudio kernel module, and I am able to modprobe that module with no issues... But I can't get any ALSA or OSS application to use the onboard audio...
My M-Audio Delta 410 works, but the sound output from it is scratchy... But that's a whole different issue.
The thing that I can't understand is why I am able to load the kernel module, but the SuSE hardware detection does not find this card. And whenever I try going into YaST and setting up the nForce2 audio, it tells me that there was an error trying to load the nvaudio module...
So... I'm pretty stumped on this one... =P
Thanks,
Mike H.
