More sound issues

Folks:

I've been following all the threads for some time now, and still haven't 
gotten sound to work playing CDs or the sound that should play when starting 
KDE.  I do though get sound when playing swf files and from kmail alerts.  
Hardware is Dell Inspiron 1000.

I've added the device to my /etc/hotplug/blacklist, checked /etc/modprobe.conf 
these files look fine to me.  Today I discovered the following messages 
in /tmp/xses-user.X:
ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:549:(snd_pcm_hw_start) SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_START failed: Broken 
pipe
ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:549:(snd_pcm_hw_start) SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_START failed: Broken 
pipe
ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:549:(snd_pcm_hw_start) SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_START failed: Broken 
pipe

Just to desk check me here are my /etc/hotplug/blacklist and modprobe.conf 
files:
cat /etc/hotplug/blacklist
#
# Listing a module here prevents the hotplug scripts from loading it.
# Usually that'd be so that some other driver will bind it instead,
# no matter which driver happens to get probed first.  Sometimes user
# mode tools can also control driver binding.
#
# Syntax:  driver name alone (without any spaces) on a line. Other
# lines are ignored.
