It seems /dev/dsp is used by wavplay. Wavplay is part of xcdroast
according to 'urpmf wavplay'.

Well it's a late reply and probably not very helpful but at least your
soundcard is detected and the ALSA drivers are loaded. How about
logging in to KDE to test sound? Also, do applications 'appear' to
play, like a moving progress indicator?

Good luck!

I mean no offense cause I have done this, did you check which jack you plugged into on the sound card? Most of them will want the green colored port. I Have also noticed that in some cards the pcm will stop sound if turned up to 100. Try shutting down also igain seperately and line and line1 while something is trying to play sound. HTH
