I'm having troubles with alsa driver 0.3.0 pre2 (and 0.2.0 pre10) and a 
SoundBlaster PCI128 sound card. From what I can tell, everything works except
for the actual sound coming out :)

amixer output:

And when I play an mp3 with mpg123:

ES1370 DAC2/ADC

Record isn't active.

The speakers work when I play a CD and plug them into the CD lpayer's jack,
and I've tried plugging them into every jack on the sound card, but nothing
seems to work. The only thing I can think of is that there's 2 jumpers on
the sound card for speaker or line-out output, and I haven't tried swapping
those, but I'd rather see if I can fix this in software first.

BTW- I'm running Debian potato (unstable branch) and kernel 2.2.0 pre2.
