After upgrading from CentOS 4.3 to 4.4 the sound doesn't work anymore. Messages like the following appear in dmesg when I try to use it: application firefox-bin uses obsolete OSS audio interface The output from 'lsmod | snd' is: snd_azx 21713 2 snd_hda_codec 121665 1 snd_azx snd_pcm_oss 52729 0 snd_mixer_oss 21953 2 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm 92357 3 snd_azx,snd_hda_codec,snd_pcm_oss snd_timer 28229 1 snd_pcm snd 57509 8 snd_azx,snd_hda_codec,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer soundcore 13089 2 snd snd_page_alloc 13897 2 snd_azx,snd_pcm The computer is a Dell Dimension 3100 and the soundcard in on-board. Has anyone else seen this problem? Thanks, Joe

Has anyone else seen this problem?Nope. I don't have a Dell though. I've seen a lot of posts where people are told to check to see if things got muted and they did check and things were muted and un-muting fixed it. In case that's not your problem, here's my modules for comparison (ignor the hardware-specific piece, of course). # lsmod|grep snd snd_via82xx 26565 2 snd_ac97_codec 64145 1 snd_via82xx snd_pcm_oss 49401 0 snd_mixer_oss 18241 2 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm 97225 2 snd_via82xx,snd_pcm_oss snd_timer 30149 1 snd_pcm snd_page_alloc 9929 2 snd_via82xx,snd_pcm snd_mpu401_uart 8897 1 snd_via82xx snd_rawmidi 26853 1 snd_mpu401_uart snd_seq_device 8265 1 snd_rawmidi snd 55973 11 snd_via82xx,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_mpu401_uart,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_device soundcore 10017 2 snd> > Thanks, > > Joe > <snip sig stuff>HTH -- Bill

For comparison is the lsmod output from my CentOS 4.4 laptop with the same hardware and for me sound is fine.

Checked all the muted settings etc, but its not that no sound - the sound is all distorted. As a temporary solution, we jsut change back to the 34.0.2-686 drivers via Grub (we need it once in a blue moon). But everyone else either plays sound, or none at all.
