It may be worth disabling Pulseaudio temporarily as below. yum remove alsa-plugins-pulseaudio Your output from grepping the codecs shows 2 cards, which should be confirmed by running, cat /proc/asound/cards , and I know that pulseaudio has some problems with multiple cards. BTW, I thought that the F10 install came with alsa driver version 1.0.17, not 1.0.18a, which is the latest release of the driver. Of course you may just need to add the same options to /etc/modprobe.conf, as you had for the F8 install. I don't think you'll have any success in compiling the alsa driver 1.0.15 against a 2.6.27 kernel.See below for supported kernels for the 1.0.15 alsa driver. <quote from SUPPORTED_KERNELS file> The alsa-drivers in this package are designed for the following kernels: - Vanilla 2.6.22 or earlier - Vanilla 2.4.31 or earlier - Vanilla 2.2.26 or earlier It's not guaranteed that they work with any newer version than above or modified kernels by distributors. <end quote> Perhaps you'd like to go to the link below, and save the script as alsa-info.sh in your /home/user directory. Make it executable, then run it as. ./alsa-info.sh http://hg.alsa-project.org/alsa/raw-file/tip/alsa-info.sh This script will upload info about your machine, and particularly the sounds. Post back the link to the site where the data has been uploaded to. Best wishes.
