gentoo use hotplug by default. At that time, hotplug have been integrated in coldplug. Hotplug need a kernel >=2.6.15 and if you read the gentoo handbook, it is a mention of it in the genkernel chapter:
Code:
rc-update add coldplug boot

I am not using genkernel, but have added coldplug in my root runlevel. It work like a cham and I have no need anymore to put the sdn-usb-audio module in the hotplug blacklist file.

What do you mean? In Gentoo udev Guide, they tell in short to do the following:
Code:
# emerge udev
# emerge hotplug
# emerge coldplug
# rc-update add coldplug boot
So, it is no hotplug in any runlevel, only coldplug.

I am not sure what is your problem, but esd is the enlightment sound deamon. Choose another sond demon as arts alsa or auto in the kde control center and try again.

http://gentoo-portage.com/sys-apps/coldplug/Dep#ptabs

!>=sys-fs/udev-089

means no coldplug for udev-089 and over, since I accept keywords amd64 and ~amd64, I'm having udev-100-r2

I think I fixed this problem by disabling hotplug and coldplug in /etc/conf.d/rc . I'm not sure if it's necessary to disable them both but atleast it works now.

Edit: it wasn't that good idea afterall, disabling RC_COLDPLUG seems to disable all services, cupsd, samba etc ... I have no idea. This issue is still unresolved :(

Ok, I finally solved my case.

I previously had just
Quote:
options snd cards_limit=2
options snd-emu10k1 index=0


but what was needed is
Quote:
options snd cards_limit=2
options snd-emu10k1 index=0
options snd-intel8x0 index=1


Otherwise it just didn't work but alsasound didn't complain about anything either.
