Still, I do not hear any sound though, when running aplay or play.

Have you got anything plugged into the gameport on the card, that's likely to
be using midi? Any OSS app will be using /dev/dsp, and will grab the
soundcard, preventing anything else using it.
When I try again it hangs (also aconnect --removeall hangs then).
Perhaps this is because the alsa sources 1.0.12.rc1 I installed myself
have overwritten the .rpm files that I had installed before. There might
be version conflicts, I have no clue how to check that.
Nor have I. That's something to ask about on the alsa-user list.
# rpm -qf /etc/init.d/alsasound
file /etc/init.d/alsasound is not owned by any package
rpm -q will only find rpms. Alsasound is a shellscript, and hence rpm doesn't
know that it exists.
I'm running out of ideas.
Nigel.
btw. Just a kindly word. Try and post your answers at the bottom of the
previous post, perhaps also removing unessessary content, as I've done with
your Amixer output, and which still available on the previous post. Top
posting makes it difficult to follow a thread.
