Hi Heather, I have had this very problem, and have figured out how to fix it. In my /etc/modules.conf file, there is an entry that says something like:
alias sound-slot-0 emu10k1 To fix the problem with my computer and my SBLive card, I commented out that line (put a # in front of it), and added the following to the /etc/modules file: sound-slot-0 emu10k1 This way, it forces the kernel to load the module at boot. For some reason, the module wasn't being loaded properly the other way. Hope that helps.
