Thanks for the information. I tried specifying "plughw:1,0" as the
playback device in the XMMS ALSA plugin, and now I do get sound from my
Audiophile 2496... but it's just noise. Specifically, when I start XMMS
playing, I get a repetitive burst of noise which repeats without
changing until I stop playback.
Here are the messages from XMMS while this happens:
