Thanks for the info but no joy.  Sound is broken, plain and simple...so is 
draksound, apparently.  If I fire up draksound and select "another driver" 
and go with the oss driver, it doesn't properly update modules.conf.  It only 
partially updates it, leaving most of it setup for alsa.  In any case, I 
totally remove the alsa crap from modules.conf and went oss.  No sound.

There is nothing wrong with the hardware.  It is fine and it works.  It works 
in windoze, it works in 9.1 and 9.0.  It is 9.2 that is borked.  

I'll take a look at your bug link but it is looking like I will have to 
abandon 9.2 on my desktop and go to SuSE.  Without working sound, I am not 
interested in a distro and it is not acceptable to me to have paid $80 and 
have to drop the new distro to go back to the previous working version (which 
is the only other option I can see at this point other than going to SuSE 
which I KNOW works with sound).

Anyone else have suggestions?  

Oh yes, trying to play with aumix and mute does nothing.  I get little faint 
electronic chirps from my speakers when manipulating volume controls, etc, 
but that's it.  This is true for alsa and oss drivers.
