I built a new system a few months ago using an AsRock ConRoe945G-DVI motherboard. After the system has been up for a while (it could be anywhere from a few minutes to a few days) the sound device would "lockup". eg "cat /etc/passwd > /dev/sound/dsp" would just pause and never finishes. Sometimes "/etc/init.d/alsasound restart" gets it going again, other a reboot. Another thing was that the mixing was very flaky, it sometimes worked and sometimes didn't. I started off with the kernel alsa drivers then changed to alsa-driver but the problem persisted. So I got fed up and a couple of weeks ago I just bought a cheapo sound card to replace the onboard one, and haven't had a problem since. -- Crayon -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

I've rebooted today with kernel 2.6.19 (used 2.6.18 before). I have a Intel 945G/GZ/P/PL motherboard and a Intel hda on board soundcard (Alsamixer says "Card: HDA Intel" and "Chip: Realtek ALC260"). Look for the Bugs concerning the kernel and hda-intel drivers http://bugs.gentoo.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=ALL+alsa+hda For me alsa-driver (not kernel-alsa) did not work with kernel 2.6.19 too. I upgraded to kernel 2.6.20 and latest alsa-driver, and my problem was solved. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

You could try 2.6.21-rc5 and see if that helps. Roger -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
[gentoo-user] headphones don't work since upgrade to kernel 2.6.19???
Hi, I've rebooted today with kernel 2.6.19 (used 2.6.18 before). I have a Intel 945G/GZ/P/PL motherboard and a Intel hda on board soundcard (Alsamixer says "Card: HDA Intel" and "Chip: Realtek ALC260"). I've listened to music via headphones plugged in on the frontside. Suddenly this setup don't work anymore: If I turn up the PCM playback source in the alsamixer, I hear the sound from the builtin PC boxen. If I turn PCM level to 0 I hear nothing. The Headphon channel is dead. What now? Kernel version: Linux atpcbygc 2.6.19-gentoo-r5 I use the alsa drivers coming with the kernel.
