i,

I have a very similar problem with the following configuration:

ii  alsa-base                  1.0.6a-5 ALSA configuration files
ii  alsa-modules-2.4.27-1-k7   1.0.6a+4 Advanced Linux Sound
Architecture
ii  alsa-utils                 1.0.6-4 ALSA utilities

Sound system is working rather properly but I get continual hisses out
of my soundcard, some sound is coming out as well but is completely
garbled. I configured the card with alsaconf, config sounds OK
(attached). I have also a bt87x and snd-usb-sound (webcam) loading at
boot time, but it doesn't change anything to rmmod them.

$ /sbin/lsmod | grep snd
snd-ens1371            12100   1 (autoclean)
snd-pcm-oss            37608   0 (unused)
snd-mixer-oss          13272   0 [snd-pcm-oss]
snd-pcm                58952   1 [snd-ens1371 snd-pcm-oss]
snd-timer              14308   0 [snd-pcm]
gameport                1676   0 [snd-ens1371]
snd-rawmidi            13092   0 [snd-ens1371]
snd-seq-device          4064   0 [snd-rawmidi]
snd-ac97-codec         54608   0 [snd-ens1371]
snd                    34308   0 [snd-ens1371 snd-pcm-oss snd-mixer-oss
snd-pcm snd-timer snd-rawmidi snd-seq-device snd-ac97-codec]
snd-page-alloc          4908   0 [snd-mixer-oss snd-pcm snd-timer
snd-rawmidi snd-seq-device snd]
soundcore               3972   6 [snd]

Sound works otherwise with ALSA from SuSE 8.2 and Knoppix 3.6. I don't
know what is different.
Tell me what I should look at and I give you more information.

Cheers, Eric
