Hello list:

I'm using Suse 7.3 with kernel 2.4.10 on a PentiumII 450 with an onboard
ess 1869 soundchip.

The installation of the sound appeared to work fine, as far as the
configuration program YaST2 is concerned. However, any digital sound
echo like a defective CD in a CD-player. But playing regular music CD's
is no problem.Has anybody encountered such a problem and found a
solution? 

I'm not really an expert on computer guts, the only thing that appears
strange is that aplay -w.somesound.wav gives:

Aplay: version 0.5.10 by Jaroslav Kysela <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Using soundcard 'ESS AudioDrive ES1869 at 0x220, irq 5, dma1 1, dma2 3'

and more /proc/asound/cards gives

0 [card1          ]: ES1869 - ESS AudioDrive ES1869
                     ESS AudioDrive ES1869 at 0x220, irq 5, dma1 1, dma2
3

According to the BIOS, the first DMA is 1 and the second DMA is 0, while
in the above mentioned outputs the value for the second DMA appears to
be set to 3

Can anybody help me here??

Many thanks in advance,
cpapan
