Audio don't work (device dsp)

[Profeta Abacuc]

I've Fedora core 3, kernel 2.6.10-1.766_FC3 - And I use Kde 3.3.1

My Audio board:
# lspci | grep audio
00:0a.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Live! EMU10k1 (rev
06)

Since yesterday, audio was working. But after I used skype (all ok,
after editing in audio mixer) my system crash on exiting from skype. So,
after reboot I've this error:

Sound server informational message:
Error while initializing the sound driver:
device: default can't be opened for playback (No such device)
The sound server will continue, using the null output device.

i.e. system can't open /dev/dsp device (no such file or directory). But,
before re-boot I had dsp in /dev dir!!

So I re-create dsp by MAKEDEV or mknod.. su root:
mknod /dev/dsp c 14 3
and then chmod 666 /dev/dsp

Why major and minor 14 3?
'cause..
cat /proc/devices
Character devices:
  1 mem
  4 /dev/vc/0
  4 tty
  4 ttyS
  5 /dev/tty
  5 /dev/console
  5 /dev/ptmx
  7 vcs
 10 misc
 13 input
 14 sound
 29 fb
 36 netlink
108 ppp
116 alsa
128 ptm
136 pts
180 usb
226 drm

Block devices:
  1 ramdisk
  2 fd
  3 ide0
  9 md
 22 ide1
253 device-mapper
254 mdp

Btw, after creating device.. I've always same problem! And dsp disappear
from my dev dir!!

So, I look at dmesg output:

dmesg output:
AC'97 0 does not respond - RESET
AC'97 0 access is not valid [0xffffffff], removing mixer.
EMU10K1_Audigy: probe of 0000:00:0a.0 failed with error -5


Shit! Maybe problem it's here! But, what's problem!?

I look at modules:

That's all!

I've not others ideas!

I tried also by system-config-sound, but audio test fail 'cause it can
find device. In the end, I've tried to upgrade my system by CD's Fedora
Core 3. Nothing, and now I've not system-config-sound in my dir !!

HELP ME, PLS!!
