Sound not working until probed

[Joe Dauncey]

Hi,

I've just upgraded from FC1 to FC2.

Sound used to work OK.

Now, when I reboot, sound doesn't work.

However, if I go to 'Soundcard Detection' and select 'Play test sound' the test sound plays fine, and then everything works OK.

I am guessing that it's probing something.

Any ideas how I can get it to probe itself automatically?

Thanks,
Joe

PS. It's pity it's not always clear what application is run by a menu option in gnome (or other window managers) as it's a bit of a pain running ps all the time to find out what's at the backend.
