My sound in games like wolfenstein and quake3 dies after a couple of seconds
i have great sound but then it stops
i used dmesg and snipped this from it:
devfs_mk_dir(snd): using old entry in dir: c12c85c0 ""
PCI: Found IRQ 5 for device 00:0c.0
Vortex: hardware init.... <6>done.

Vortex: vortex_fifo_setadbctrl fail
Vortex: vortex_fifo_setadbctrl fail (# this failures shows up when i stop
Vortex: vortex_fifo_setadbctrl fail and start alsasound after
Vortex: vortex_fifo_setadbctrl fail soundcrash in wolfenstein)

i have to stop alsasound and restart it to get my sound back
and have to do modprobe snd-pcm-oss to get it to work again in wolfenstein
aplay is also not playing correctly some wav files (for example icq sounds
Message.wav has an echo,
with aplay -Dplug:dmix /usr/share/licq/sounds/icq/Message.wav the wav sounded
ok echo is gone
esdplay can play all wav files (when module snd-pcm-oss is loaded)
does anyone know a solution?
