KDE will regenerate it as required when you go in to kde again. I have the same audio chip and have to do that sometimes - something to do with the STAC9721/23, I think - not the greatest mixer control. -- Peter Ruskin, Wrexham, Wales.

Re: [Cooker] Error with mixer devices
This seems like a problem with devfs When I turn on messages there are all kind of errors when trying to test sound in kde. One is a sound server warning message the other is a suid root message. The last message is Sound server fatal error cpu overload, aborting.

[Cooker] Error with mixer devices
I have just installed RC1, and everything is looking sweet, however i have one odd problem. I have a soundblaster live card which has always worked really well under linux. However in RC1 the mixers are wrong, the sound mixer in KDE has two tabs, on is "Creative SBLive", but say that it is an invalid mixer device, and the other, which actually controls the volume, but is missing some of the old controls it used to have is a SigmaTel STAC9721/23 Never had this problem with 8 and the mandrake freqs i installed, and i have no idea what is causing this.
