Hi People.  I am trying to get a box up and running and am stuck
with sound problems.  I compiled a new 2.6.6 kernel kernel.org and
the kernel seems OK.  The sound card is a sound blaster live and I
compiled that into the kernel; along with the mixer and stuff.  I'm
using ALSA.  On boot, the kernel recognizes the sound card.
However, when in GNOME I test the usage of the card with XMMS.  I
get an error message that pops up that says 

    Please check that: 

        o   You sound card is configured properly
        o   You have the correct output plugin selected 
        o   No other program is blocking the sound card

OK, I checked /dev/dsp and it is there.  Also, I'm doing this as
root, so I don't think it is a permission problem. I've searched the
net via google and the debian mail archive and either I'm missing
points people have made, or ....  I dunno.  I'm stuck.  

I'm running sarge, BTW.  I have libsound2 installed and alsa
packages from the deb archive too.

Suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance.
