(I don't always have a spare set of speakers available for the Alpha). This literally could have been broken for months... Symptoms: (1) Using the sox-based "play" command to play a short ".wav" file results in the file being played approx. 1.5 times, i.e., it plays all the way through, then restarts from the beginning and quits somewhere in the middle of the second playback. At least the sound doesn't seem distorted... (2) Using "mpg123" results in silence at first, then after about 30 seconds, a tight loop of random repeating sound (doesn't sound like part of the mp3 file, but it's probably derived from it :-)) until the process is forcibly killed. I have to hit C twice to interrupt playback. /proc/asound/cards looks normal: 0 [ES1888 ]: ES1888 - ESS AudioDrive ES1888 ESS AudioDrive ES1888 at 0x220, irq 5, dma1 1, dma2 5 Here are the ALSA module options I've always had defined in /etc/modprobe.d/sound: alias snd-card-0 snd-es18xx alias sound-slot-0 snd-es18xx options snd-es18xx enable=1 isapnp=0 port=0x220 irq=5 dma1=1 dma2=5 mpu_port=0x330 -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Bob Tracy | "I was a beta tester for dirt.
