[olug] sound?

[Noel Leistad]

It's been so long since I've had to fix a sound issue that I've
forgotten how. Could anyone offer suggestions or tell me what I forgot
to provide? I'm stumped; the fact that system-config-soundcard is
working along w/ MythTV complicates it to the point that Google hasn't
been helpful in the first 15 minutes of searching....

Thanks.

running CentOS 5.9 32-bit
 
no sound from aplay /usr/share/sounds/* attempts
no sound from vlc *.mp3 attempts
no sound or sound device from any flash videos (ahhh!! the real
problem...., or at least the reason for attempting to fix)

system-config-soundcard detects, plays test sound.
mythfrontend plays sound from recordings, liveTV

aplay -l gives:

**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****

The old complaint that mass culture is designed for eleven-year-olds
is of course a shameful canard.  The key age has traditionally been
more like fourteen.
