The sound driver info is below. I've tried both the maestro and

Hi Brandon,

The problem seems to be the aRts Server.

I had a similar problem. This is what I've done:

I started by running draksound. If it detects the soundcard, it will 
configure the right driver (module) if it doesn't work, click the 
Trouble shooting button. It gives you a few suggestions to follow. Try 
it. 

If that doesn't work, try running alsaconf. That solved it for me. ;-)

Good Luck !

Write back if you didn't succeed, I have a few more ideas.
