Now first thing to check is always whether you have unmuted channels :-)) This is by far the most widespread sound problem in Linux. KMix is good for that. Other than that - I have the same sound chip. 9.0 got it recognized and it also worked except for some games. You could try latest alsa drivers - www.alsa-project.org. Look for instructions specific to your chip. They have very good step-by-step instructions that are suitable for complete newb with standard intelligence and some time at hand :-) This will require downloading and compiling three files, modifying your modules.conf and editing or creating .asoundrc file in your home directory. Given the quality of instructions you can do it fast and it is also great educational experiment. Conclusion - it seems VT8233 is not best-supported piece of hardware and requires extra work but will work for most purposes. Wahur
