I have the same problem folks. I had a working sound card in FC2 and upgrade to FC3 using YUM.
Something has happened somewhere which made Alsa quit working.
I've been playing around with it off and on for the last couple of
days and am starting to get pissed.
I've tried to re-install all the ALSA rpm's for FC3 and still haven't had any luck.
[charlie@localhost ~]$ system-config-soundcard
amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such file or directory
amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such file or directory
aplay: main:533: audio open error: No such file or directory
[charlie@localhost ~]$ which amixer
/usr/bin/amixer
[charlie@localhost ~]$ amixer
amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such file or directory
[charlie@localhost ~]$ /usr/bin/amixer
amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such file or directory
[charlie@localhost ~]$ alsamixer
alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory
[charlie@localhost ~]$
This has to be some problem involving YUM upgrades as opposed to upgrading via CD's.
But what? I haven't figured out yet.
