Same configs, same modules loaded but now no sound - what can I check to determine problem and find a solution? no errors in logs or dmesg I would suggest you start checking back through the changelogs between kernel-2.6.18-194.el5 and kernel-2.6.18-164.el5, find likely candidates that may have caused your issue and then rebuild a testing kernel with that patch reverted. If that testing kernel fixes your issue then you've identified the issue and can file a bug report upstream. To start you on your way, this patch looks like a likely candidate for you to investigate further: * Mon Dec 21 2009 Jarod Wilson <ja...@redhat.com> [2.6.18-183.el5] - [sound] alsa hda driver update for rhel5.5 (Jaroslav Kysela) [525390] Rob, I understand you have already tried a workaround reported in: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=586532 correct, I've had to use this on a number of nvidia based machines already (unfortunately). In this instance it was no help - not surprising as it is not an nvidia controller but intel chipset albeit with an nvidia graphics chip. Before I bother Gary I'll try to revert to a default centos kernel rather than the centosplus kernel just to be sure. Will keep you posted. According to comment #10 in there, Gary Gatling built a test kernel with the above alsa patch removed. You might want to try asking him for the kernel he built if you do not feel like building it yourself.
