[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#614610: [alsa-base] after feb 22, 2011 Squeeze "upgrade, " alsa will not load my sound module (echo mia). NO sound.

[Henry W. Peters]

I did a search, both in my home folder & system files, on the word 
'.asoundrc' & neither places did such a file show up.

I also tried doing 'aplay -vv /home/henry/Music/LouisArmstrong.wav' as 
root (I did assume you actually wanted the result with the resaved 
'.asoundrc' so this probably does not mean much), same result (pasted 
below):

# aplay -vv /home/henry/Music/LouisArmstrong.wav

P.s., to be (more) clear, were you wanting me basically just to rename 
'.asoundrc' if I actually found it?
