I've been trying to use Skype on ICH5 AC'97 with normal speakers and boom mike. The latest is a "SUSE 10.x" RPM a week old. Previously there was only available a tar.gz for SUSE. The Skype RPM works, but only when my 10.2 sound configuration is correct. Making it correct is vexing. Even more vexing is it won't stay properly configured, as if some daemon at least once a day was deleting or substituting its own idea of how sound should be configured. I looked in /etc for something that represents sound configuration, but /etc/sound does not exist, and /etc/alsa.d only contains *font files. Anyone know why, when I open KMix and set various components according to Skype instructions, that I can open KMix again 24 hours later and the settings won't be the same as I left them? Anyone know how to configure SUSE sound via config files, at least, where they are, or some HOWTO for configuring sound without GUI tools, or with something other than KMix?
