Yes, that worked. Just to make a close loop, I am posting what I did here: lsmod did not show any ati driver for anything, but did show snd_ha_intel and since I know I am not running an intel sound chip and the sound device is listed as ATI HA with lspci, I ran rmmod snd_ha_intel and I had sound. I added "blacklist snd_ha_intel" to the /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist and rebooted. It came up with sound, and my selected "sound device" for gkrellm volume was still active (previously, gkrellm would not have any volume controls after a reboot). Thanks! -- Damon L.
