note that there're changes regarding dell cards  snd-emu10k (signals routing 
in the DSP, mixer elements) in alsa cvs on early november, so maybe will it be 
handled better in the future.

I talked with 3 Dell people on the phone and browsed Dell's and Creative's web
sites.  The problem with Dell's Sound Blaster Live is that their new computers
ship with sound cards that have the DSP chip crippled so that all sound
processing functions take place in software rather than hardware (like a
WinModem).  Creative and Dell have no solution to this, but I got Dell to send
me a replacement Sound Blaster Audigy 2.  Because this is a driver issue,  there
is probably nothing Mandrake can or should do at this time.  Mandrake did
successfully detect and configure my Audigy 2 without *any* input from me, so I
was very impressed.  Anyone with this problem should contact Dell and get them
to provide a replacement.  Thanks for the help.

When I mute or unmute the Analog/Digital Output Jack (there is no analog
output jack), nothing changes.  I have also tried pretty much every other
possible combination of muting/unmuting between the many sliders.  My
modules.conf is as follows:


above snd-emu10k1 snd-pcm-oss
alias eth0 e100
probeall usb-interface usb-uhci ehci-hcd
alias sound-slot-0 snd-emu10k1
probeall scsi_hostadapter ide-scsi
alias sound-slot-1 snd-emu10k1
above snd-intel8x0 snd-pcm-oss


I have integrated sound, but it is disabled in the BIOS (it was enabled when I
first installed, and probably why it is listed).  I would just use the
integrated sound, but Dell didn't put any external output jacks for it because
the Sound Blaster Live is present.  There is a slider called Sigmatel Surround
that makes static increase or decrease when I slide it, but it does not affect
actual music or anything else.  gnome-alsamixer identifies the card as SigmaTel
STAC9708/11 if that helps, rather than Sound Blaster or anything like that. 
Thanks a lot if you can help me!

Well, I found out what the problem was with my sound card.  Apparently Dell
deviates from the standard OEM spec for Sound Blaster Live! 5.1.  The EMU10K1
drivers just don't work on it (yet).  The problem has been around since the
Spring, and no one from Dell seems to care (though it's acknowledged on their
support page).  There are commercial EMU10K1X drivers available from a third
party, but they cost $35 and the demo only works for 3 hours.  Mandrake detects
the card as EMU10K1X, so I was hoping they had drivers for it, but apparently
it's just detection.  They don't have the drivers or any equivalent.  If there
is an open source equivalent someone can point me to, I'd be really happy. 
Otherwise, I'm just going to try to swap the card with my old SB Live card and
that should hopefully work.  Thanks everybody for all the help.  I guess the
moral is that I should have listened to my conscience and not bought from a
major OEM.

what about playing with alsamixergui or gnome-alsamixer and muting the
analog output jack control ?

btw, could you attach your current /etc/modules.conf?

the bug of reverting to default sound driver in harddrake service has been 
fixed in drakxtools-9.2-12mdk on Tue Sep 16 2003. 
 
the muted mixer on boot was fixed in drakxtools-9.2-11mdk on Thu Sep 11 2003. 
 
is there still another problem?

 I am also having problems with my Sound Blaster Live! Value.  I have upgraded to
 the latest Cooker packages as of 17 Sept 2003 but it still does not work.  I get
 no error messages whatsoever, and with aumix and Kmix I can verify sound isn't
 muted.  Increasing the volume does increase the static coming out of the
 speakers.  However, no sound plays, in WAV, MP3, MPG, AVI, MOV, etc.  I have
 tried both emu10k1 and snd-emu10k1.  I got some help from the guys at
 PCLinuxOnline
 (http://www.pclinuxonline.com/modules.php?name=Forumsfile=viewtopictopic=2116forum=19)
 but the problem is still unresolved.  Any suggestions?  Thanks.
 

I do not think (also from what I read in that link) that you have the same 
problem as in that bug.

a couple of things:
- are you using analog or digital speakers?
- if analog: in what channel are they plugged (there is a 1 and a 2 on 
your card, try to use 1, 2 colors as well, but too lazy to check;).
- do you use alsa (type lsmod, do you see snd-emu10k1 there, or just 
emu10k1)?
- IF you use alsa and have your speakers in second channel, you need to 
mute the analog output jack and increase the volume with wave 
surround, use kmix or alsamixergui to do this. NOT aumix
- if you use alsa and have your speakers in first channel, check if all is 
unmuted in kmix/alsmixergui, if still doesn't work, post output of amixer
- if you want to switch cards, use the soundcard config in harddrake. the 
KDE settings have no effect at all on the driver you are using, just on 
what kde uses as output. To exclude arts problems, test your sound with 
xmms or some other non-kde program.

in 9.2 RC 2 Sound Blaster Live! always loads audigy drivers and when changed in
harddrake to emu10K, sound is available only during the session. When restarted,
the computer is mute again...

I have same problem. I intentionally select emu10k1 instead of audigy during
9.2RC1 installation. When it boots up, dunno y both drivers are trying to load
at the same time -- emu10k1 failed to load. The info you requested is below.
The tricky part is, I think, if one uses Gnome, the volumn control will start
when desktop launches. If one tries to switch sound drivers under harddrake, it
will fail cuz it can't shut down alsa since it's being used by volumn control.
