I ran into a similar problem after an update. audacious and mpg123 |
| 2 |
which use ALSA, died; Realplayer and mpg321 get by with the OSS api on |
| 3 |
ALSA. revdep-rebuild didn't find anything wrong. |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
I tried various things without success. What finally worked was the |
| 6 |
following... |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
1) rebuild the kernel with sound support but no ALSA support at all |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
2) reboot |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
3) add the appropriate ALSA_CARDS line to /etc/make.conf, in your case |
| 13 |
ALSA_CARDS="hda-intel" |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
4) emerge alsa-driver (and it probably still won't work) |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
5) emerge -C alsa-driver |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
6) rebuild the kernel with sound support and ALSA support |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
7) reboot |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
8) run alsaconf |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
After this sequence, my ALSA sound finally started working again. I |
| 26 |
don't know what happened. A wild guess is that "make" was trying to |
| 27 |
"be efficient" and kept some code from a previous version, that doesn't |
| 28 |
work with the current version. It had to be totally removed in order |
| 29 |
to get "make" to build the new version of the code. |

A. I think it would be a good idea. |
