After much fighting, it... well, it *kinda* works... read on...
In yast i can see the card and configure it, but in the Volume settings i see no controls except for the Test button. During the *initial* setup of the card the controls were all there and the Test button played sound. (Boy, was i excited when it finally made some noise!) Now the test button does nothing.
Repeat the first of the three steps I provided last night and configure the card *once* with YaST and then leave it alone. The fact that all the controls were there and the test button played sound the *first* time indicates success. After that, *do not* try to test or configure the sound again using YaST or it will corrupt your sound setup. Been there, done that, so have many others. Instead, at that point, you need to explore and discover which of the installed *mixers* will work with your installed driver/chip combo. In my case, I get minimal functionality with Kmix and full functionality with QAmix. Your situation will be different because the driver/chip combo is different. hth & regards, Carl
