The pulseaudio sound server isn't running. check it with:
$ ps aux |grep pul
I get:
davidt 2896 0.0 0.3 32956 4676 ? Sl May27 3:32
/usr/bin/pulseaudio --log-target=syslog
davidt 2986 0.0 0.1 5216 1676 ? S May27 0:00
/usr/libexec/pulse/gconf-helper
how about changing the order of the soundcard with the webcam ? Just an
edit of /etc/modprobe.conf ought to set it straight. The webcam is mono,
right? But since it is loaded first, then I would think that it is the
default sound device, being pointed to by such things as OSS
as /dev/snd. It's a thought, trouble shooting with a shotgun. Ric
