Hi,
I had a similar problem with sound which I eventually sorted out.
Possibly your problem is the same as mine.
Basically, there seems to be an incompatability between aumix and the
Gnome volume control.
I corrected the .aumixrc files as suggested (there's one in /etc,
probably one in the users home directory and possibly one in /root).
Sound recording (using audacity) then worked fine - for abouut 10
seconds until I adjusted the volume control. Then audacity went silent
again.
By trial and error I found that you can adjust the sliders on the volume
control, but if you start it, or click on any of the boxes, then it
immediately over-writes the .aumixrc files and leaves them in
playback-only mode. That happens even if the box you click is the
"record" box. Previously, with RH7.3, I had to click on the appropriate
"record" box to activate sound recording, but this time it just kills
the recording, so that got me quite confused.
This looks like a bug which should be reported. It certainly wasted a
lot of my time.
Regards
Clive Harris
