modules.conf has :

alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc
alias eth0 sis900
alias usb-controller usb-ohci
alias usb-controller1 ehci-hcd
alias sound-slot-0 i810_audio
post-install sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -L >/dev/null 2>&1 || :

alias usb-controller usb-ohci
alias usb-controller1 ehci-hcd
alias usb-controller usb-ohci
alias usb-controller1 ehci-hcd
alias char-major-195 nvidia

again - cd's play fine from xmms. nothing else plays. not even startup/err sounds.

the soundcard is detected when i do a sndconfig - but is not able to play a test sound.

and no, its not the volume.

anybody has any idea?

pls lemme know - thnx.

CD audio will always play because the sound is coming directly from a device like a CD player or any hard connection like a cable.
