Hi Pluggers,

I've installed a Creative Labs SB Live soundcard but when I run mplayer or
xmms I still get errors such as "No Audio". The steps I took during
installation were:

1. recompiled kernel with SB Live module (emu10k1)
2. modconf'd SB Live module (success)
3. modprobe'd SB Live module (success)

Does anyone know the next step to take in getting sound support? Any
ideas?

PS:

When I try "cat demo.mp3 > /dev/audio" I get hissing output from the
speakers.

When I reboot, the card is detected correctly:
 Creative EMU10K1 PCI Audio Driver, version 0.18, 10:35:55 Aug  3 2002
 PCI: Found IRQ 11 for device 00:0f.0
 emu10k1: EMU10K1 rev 7 model 0x8064 found, IO at 0xe000-0xe01f, IRQ 11
 ac97_codec: AC97 Audio codec, id: 0x454d:0x4328 (Unknown)
 emu10k1: SBLive! 5.1 card detected

Thanks!

Tyler
