Hi,

I have to rerun sndconfig each time I boot to get sound to work
properly. After a boot I can play cd's fine, but mp3 files and so
on don't work. But if I run sndconfig it works fine.

What could be wrong?

thanks,
Nick

Gday Niklas,

I have to do the same thing. What program are you using to play MP3's?

One possibility is that isapnp is not being run on booting, as it is
supposed to. sndconfig sets up isapnp.conf and then runs isapnp. Next
time try just running isapnp and see if that makes it work. If it does
find out why it is not running on bootup
(On my system it is in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit)

Hi there Todd,

I'm using mpg123. But my problem appears for other programs too. So I
don't think mpg123 is the problem.

I'm going to try the other tip, (by Bill Unruh), about isapnp..

Nope, I have no /etc/isapnp.conf. Sndconf says that I don't have pnp
devices. There must be something else that sndconf does which gets my
sound going?

If you have any more ideas I'd be more than happy to receive them!

thanks,
Nick

Same thing happens to me, but I don't believe it's on every reboot.. I
don't reboot that often, but at least five or six times running
sndconfig made my audio start working again.. Weird. Only thing I can
think of is that when the sound init file stops the sound it writes the
configuration and the configuration is 'bad'.
