I have a VIA chipset that is recognized by YaST2 (ALSA). The configuration process results in a bunch of nasty error messages (and no sound). Can anyone shed any light on this? Here are the messages resulting from attempting to configure the sound: May 4 13:33:03 avalon kernel: PCI: Setting latency timer of device 00:11.5 to 64 May 4 13:33:13 avalon kernel: ALSA ../alsa-kernel/core/pcm_lib.c:1723: BUG?
