Hello, I'm new to the Linux sound world. I'm trying to get an Audiophile 2496 to work on Fedora Core 3. I was able to install the OSS driver; however, it isn't putting sound out the SPDIF output, which is what I want. I tried to run alsamixer but got a message alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device or address Searching the web I see many people claim to get the Audiophile 2496 working but they describe how they did it in very general terms that I don't understand. Can anyone help, or point me to the right forum if this isn't it? Thanks so much, Mike
