Do you have a second computer? I guess so or you wouldn't be able to read your email. If so, maybe you can do a serial console and then run the diagnostics. You would need to make sure the correct driver module is loaded for your sound card. If it's not, it's easy enough to fix and there are directions for doing that on the web.

Hi, Doug,
I don't have a sighted person around right off that can read for me; I'll have to see when I can get Jeannie or Bry here to do that. But here's what happened to start things going downhill.
I was looking at some CDs so I could see what they were and identify them. Everything was going along fine until I put a CD in which failed to read. Doing "ls /mnt/cdrom" merely produced "/mnt/cdrom" for its results. The emacspeak cd eject command produced no results, and pushing the button on the CD-rom drive was ineffective as well. However, as soon as I rebooted the system, I had control of my drive again, and was able to eject the CD. Since then, the CD drive has worked flawlessly, but I have had *no* sound. I've tried different speakers, to no avail.
