hi,

Im having a problem... my DSL finds the installed sound card (an isa with OPTi 16 chip) and loads its drivers (mad16)...
using sndconfig I hear on my speakers that voice sample, but with XMMS I cant play any kind of music file... I mean, the song is playing but I cnat hear nothing! btw, I used Mplayer also, but it seems I managed to f**** him sumhow :s now it wont open...
so, Im asking u, is there any else music player except xmmms and mplayer to run on DSL? or could u tell me how to uninstall completely mplayer and/or wots the problem with xmms?

thanks a lot

-Using Dmix application, make sure your PCM mixer volume and MASTER mixer volume are also set to 100%.
And make sure your speakers are plugged into the speaker out jack and not the line out jack on your soundcard.
-I recommend you, to avoid other error sources, test play sound so:
Using XMMS, chosse "Play Location" and write "tone://1000" (without quotation marks).
That should generate a 1000 hertz tone.
-Remember that the audio configuration done by sndconfig utility is lost when the computer reboot.
You can to do the audio configuration permanent so:
Next to execute the sndconfig utility you will find in the /etc/modutils/sndconfig file one line like to:  

options mad16 io=0x530 irq=7 dma=0 dma16=1 mpu_io=0x330 mpu_irq=9

You must add this line to the /opt/bootlocal.sh file but changing "options" by "insmod" so:

insmod mad16 io=0x530 irq=7 dma=0 dma16=1 mpu_io=0x330 mpu_irq=9

Fortunately, also I have a ISA Plug and Play sound card with chipset OPTI 82C931 working with the mad16 driver on DSL.
Unfortunately, the DSL sound autoconfiguration fails with ISA plug and Play. Manual configuration is required or to use "sndconfig" utility.
It is normal that sndconfig utility do fail several times until inexplicably runs. If at least one time sndconfig it could play a sound sample then the correct sound configuration still remains on the /etc/modutils/sndconfig file.

Follow exactly this steps:

1. Open the /etc/modutils/sndconfig file using "beaver" text editor.
You must see on this file one line like to:

options mad16 io=0x530 irq=7 dma=0 dma16=1 mpu_io=0x330 mpu_irq=9

This line is useful later on 3 step.
2. The file that you must modify is /opt/bootlocal.sh
In Linux to modify configuration files (as bootlocal.sh) "root" permission is required, so

Open Aterminal and write following commands:

sudo su
beaver

That launch the beaver text editor with root permission.
Using beaver open the /opt/bootlocal.sh file.

3- Add following lines to /opt/bootlocal.sh file but on the last line replacing the values for "irq", "dma", "dma16", "mpu_io", and "mpu_irq" parameters by the values that you have seen on /etc/modutils/sndconfig file (first step). You directly can to do copy and paste that line but remember to replace "options" by "insmod" as you can see below.

rmmod mad16
rmmod gameport
rmmod ad1848
rmmod uart401
rmmod sb_lib
rmmod sound
rmmod soundcore
insmod soundcore
insmod sound
insmod sb_lib
insmod uart401
insmod ad1848
insmod gameport
insmod mad16 io=0x530 irq=7 dma=0 dma16=1 mpu_io=0x330 mpu_irq=9

4- Save changes, reboot the computer and test play tone://1000

ok..i am having this same problem..but i cannot find sndconfig. I opened all the way into modutils, but there is no sndconfig there. (just these options: 0keep, actions, aliases, apm, autofs, linux-wlan-ng, ndiswrapper, paths, and ppp)
