Hi there, I am not sure if this is a kernel problem or an operator
problem but for some reason or other my sound is no longer working.
More specifically when I run gmix it reports no mixers being found. I
verified that the via82cxxx driver is compiled in (it worked before)
and everything seems cosher. If anyone has a clue what would cause my
lack of sound, I would be grateful.

I noted two items of interest:
During compile I get the following messages:
***************

Note the 'unused variable 'tmp8' ' error
Also dmesg reports the following:

PCI: The same IRQ used for device 00:0a.0

I have the same problem with my K7VZA board. I replaced the onboard sound
with a real card for now.
