I'm going to re-install everything tomorrow and see what happens with the automatic drivers. I have the feeling that sound just does not work when using the Generic kernel. At all. Under any circumstances. But I'll know more tomorrow.

Straying from what's shipped with a self-compiled ALSA can also introduce many problems where you could think it's a Ubuntu bug. Have you had your self-compiled ALSA work anywhere else? Debian install maybe? -Cory K. -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users

I have also not have any problems running wine sound programs on Studio. Wine as you probably know is incompatible with pulseaudio, so I have to purge pulseaudio before I do anything else. I went on the Ubuntu bug website, and someone else just reported recent sound problems with wine, and they did not compile their own drivers. So I added info to that bug. I will also inform the wine site that there may be a problem.

Sound card not recognized
Here's a puzzle. My jaunty ubuntu studio needed to be re-installed today, and I did so using a 2-week-old installation disk. There were lots of updates. When I finished, I needed to set the system up to use wine and my Creative X-fi card, so I did the following: apt-get purge pulseaudio (wine does not work with pulseaudio) Then I compiled and installed a new alsa-driver that supports my Creative X-fi soundcard. I re-booted. asoundconf list gave me: Intel Generic (this supports my X-fi card) So I set-default-card Generic. And that worked to set the default. But neither wine nor Audacity sees my Generic (Creative X-fi) soundcard. All they see is Intel. Going through System / Admin / Sound Preference gives me the correct mixer option but not the correct playback option. What's up? What have I done differently this time? Why doesn't my X-fi work?
