[NTLUG:Discuss] sound configuration RH9

[terry]

I need help configuring sound in my new RH9 system. 
Audio device is VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8233 AC97 Audio Controller 
It's an onboard chip on a Biostar M7VIW-A01 MB.

I tried redhat-config-soundcard  but when I clicked "Play test sound" I saw 
the following error message in terminal window:
via82cxxx_audio: Device or resource busy

I see a line in /proc/interrupts that looks like this:
5:    4277838          XT-PIC  usb-uhci, usb-uhci, via82cxxx

I also see following lines in /proc/pci
 Bus  0, device  16, function  1:
    USB Controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. USB (#2) (rev 128).
      IRQ 5.
      Master Capable.  Latency=32.
      I/O at 0xd800 [0xd81f].
 Bus  0, device  17, function  5:
    Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8233 AC97 Audio 
Controller (rev 80).
      IRQ 5.
      I/O at 0xe400 [0xe4ff].

cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp  yealds no error messages nor sound.
