GlitchFreeAudio, features for F10

[Dennis J.]

Have you tested sound without PulseAudio going directly through alsa? PA 
does seem to be really picky with every update when it comes to audio 
hardware while alsa always keeps working fine for me.

I have played with alsamixer -c 0, and alsamixer -c 2, because the machine shows 2 devices when I do a aplay -l, only one plays.  All values are at 0 and I increase them to about 87% and still I cannot play anything.  I have lost sound and got it back with updates, but this time for about a little more than a week, I have no sound.  I am concerned that sound will not be coming back.  I have been running rawhide on this machine since Fedora 5 Test 2 and even went through pulseaudio introduced on this machine and sound worked flawlessly.  I do not know for sure which update brought sound to its knees, but it would be great that I can get sound back.  I will appreciate any advice/hints/comments given so that I can help in getting the GlitchFreeAudio that is targeted for Fedora 10.
