   Hi, I just upgraded my slitaz to the newest version. However, my sound died. It just doesn't want to work anymore.

   Here is part of my boot log that looks sound related:

   Restoring last alsa configuration...alsactl: load_state:1586: Cannot open /var/lib/alsa/asound.state for reading: No such file or directory

   alsactl: parse:1655: Unable to open file '/usr/share/alsa/init/00main': No such file or directory

   alsactl: parse:1655: Unable to open file '/usr/share/alsa/init/00main': No such file or directory

   best of luck tech people

   Hi,

   Alsa-utils have been updated (even if I frozed the wok a time a go) and the commiter did NOT check the package and did'n update the receipt. Before alsa was looking for /etc/asound.state but from the upgrade it want /var/lib/alsa/asound.state.

   Can you create this directory and reconfigure sound card, it should solve the bug. As root:

   # mkdir -p /var/lib/alsa
   # soundconf

   I can run aplay sound.wav no problems and play sound using Audacity. However, absolutely no sound from a webpage or alsaplayer (alsaplayer indicates that the files is being played but no sound).

   Created /var/lib/alsa but when I run soundconf I get "No supported PnP or PCI card found." message which is strange as when I open alsamixer I can get settings for my Intel card, USB Audigy and Webcam mic. Nothing is muted on the settings. Also /var/lib/alsa/asound.state has all the device parameters.

   Any ideas on what's going on? Thanks

   Sound is broken on cooking i486:
   Linux slitaz 3.2-slitaz #4 SMP Wed May 2 02:07:42 CEST 2012 i686 GNU/Linux
   I reported it to the mailing list on my review of the May 5th rolling iso:
   http://listengine.tuxfamily.org/lists.tuxfamily.org/slitaz/2012/05/msg00066.html
   The cooking get-linux-source install script is broken in addition to missing libs and segfault errors on other packages I've tried.

   @mojo, I should not have asked this question under this thread because I am not using cooking version and using the 4.0 version.

   However, I worked out that the problem is that my default sound device is the built in Intel card and I normally use my USB Audigy. The question is how can I set the USB Audigy as the default alsa device? Tried out alsactl but could not find a way to make USB Audigy the default device.

   Thanks

   Disable the built-in sound card in the motherboard bios.
   or
   Follow this tutorial to make an asoundrc file to configure another sound card as default:

   Mojo,

   I confirm, sound is broken in cooking :-/

   Kernel module loaded but /dev/snd mostyl empty. I think bug come from udev

   @mojo, used .asoundrc as mentioned in http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Asoundrc and the problem was solved.

   Thanks a lot.
