>>3) Your sound card is configured properly >>ANSWER: I am able to play CD's, thus I'm thinking this is true. This is not necessarily true. CD sound, Waveform sound and MIDI sound all have specific configuration parameters, since they are handled differently by the sound card. Chances are one or more configuration parameters are incorrect. Have you run sndconfig? Did you hear Linus? Michael J.
