If your playing cd's then your sound is working. You'll need to look into midi support and mp3 support. Although I cannot think of a reason either of these don't work w/mandrake, unless you don't have the proper programs installed.
good luck.

Re: Same problem, in fedora
 

Hi, you should probably start your own thread with your problem, and any pertinent info. On another note, I see that you have two sound cards, both try to share the same irq, which could be the problem.
good luck.
