Ive been having some trouble with getting alsa to work with my ensoniq
audiopci since I installed the 2.0.36 instead of the 2.0.34 i was using
previously.

Ive made and installed the drivers, libraries and utils fine and am
using :

----
alias char-major-14 snd
alias snd-minor-oss-0 snd snd-audiopci
alias snd-minor-oss-3 snd-pcm1-oss
alias snd-minor-oss-4 snd-pcm1-oss
alias snd-minor-oss-5 snd-pcm1-oss
alias snd-minor-oss-12 snd-pcm1-oss
alias snd-card-0 snd-audiopci
options snd snd_major=14 snd_cards_limit=1
options snd_audiopci snd_index=1 snd_dac1_frame_size=128
snd_dac2_frame_size=128 snd_adc_frame_size=128
-----

in my conf.modules.

I run modprobe snd-audiopci which appears to run fine, lsmod giving:

-----
snd-audiopci       1            0
snd-es1370         3    [snd-audiopci]  0
snd-pcm1           4    [snd-es1370]    0
snd-ac97-codec     3    [snd-es1370]    0
snd-mixer          3    [snd-audiopci snd-es1370 snd-ac97-codec]
0
snd-midi           4    [snd-audiopci snd-es1370]       0
snd-pcm            3    [snd-audiopci snd-pcm1] 0
snd                7    [snd-audiopci snd-es1370 snd-pcm1 snd-ac97-codec
snd-mixer snd-midi snd-pcm]    0
-----

However, when i attempt to set the mixer to unmute the output i am told
that
/proc/asound/0/mixer0; No such device

/proc/asound/0/mixer0 exists and i can read from it (it tells me that
all the channels are muted) but not write to it.
Booting 2.0.34 and doing the same thing produces no trouble at all..
Whats going on 'ere then?

Thanks
Tom
