My Sound device is actually connected by USB. I've double checked to
make sure the cable is connected okay.

I'm also considering another possibility. I had the sound cut out again
on me, and it was at a time when a download was completing and the file
was being saved. I think playing sound at the same time as the CPU is
doing a lot of work overwhelms the system a bit.

Just a theory at this point.
