and I get abosultly NO sound...

BUT if I disable arts reboot then I get the KDE start sound and then I try to play an MP3 and nothing... doesnt even attempt to play... also the same thing on going to a site like www.homestarrunner.com

Hi..
I would like to help you..
But i need more info...

Please post the output of dmesg..
If alsa fails at boot it's right that arts doesn't work.
Cause the soundcard drivers ain't loaded, and /dev/dsp ain't working properly.

Are you able to start alsa manual? "/etc/init.d/alsasound start"
Or does that give an error to?
Have you put alsa at the right booting place? "rc-update add alsasound boot"
and NOT "rc-update add alsasound default"

Goodluck,
Elkan

alright... I am pretty sure that I got alsa starting at boot... because I do not have arts running and I get the KDE startup sound when I login.... BUT when I goto play an MP3 I dont get anysound... As of right now the player opens and it doesnt even act like I asked it to play an MP3.. it just sits there till I close it... but you wanted the dmesg out put and here it is:

I have emerged alsa-xmms and I restarted but still nothing... I am sure I have done something wrong but I have no clue what...

The only way I have gotten the sound to work is if I delete the /dev/dsp directory then start the arts server... then everything works fine except for some choppy sound..
