After a slew of recent updates to my system, sound does not work anymore. When I modprobe snd_intel8x0, I get the following output in /var/log/messages Intel ICH 0000:00:04.0: PCI INT A disabled Intel ICH 0000:00:04.0: PCI INT A -> Link[LACI] -> GSI 22 (level, high) -> IRQ 22 Intel ICH 0000:00:04.0: setting latency timer to 64 AC'97 0 analog subsections not ready intel8x0_measure_ac97_clock: measured 50838 usecs (64 samples) intel8x0: measured clock 1258 rejected intel8x0: measure - unreliable DMA position.. intel8x0: measure - unreliable DMA position.. intel8x0: clocking to 48000 I noticed that interrupt 22 is shared with sata_nv: optimator ~ # cat /proc/interrupts CPU0 CPU1 CPU2 CPU3 0: 133 0 0 0 IO-APIC-edge timer 1: 0 0 0 2 IO-APIC-edge i8042 4: 0 0 0 1 IO-APIC-edge 6: 0 0 0 5 IO-APIC-edge floppy 7: 1 0 0 0 IO-APIC-edge 9: 0 0 0 0 IO-APIC-fasteoi acpi 14: 0 0 0 0 IO-APIC-edge pata_amd 15: 0 0 0 10 IO-APIC-edge pata_amd 19: 0 1 26 19062 IO-APIC-fasteoi nvidia 20: 0 0 0 5 IO-APIC-fasteoi ehci_hcd:usb1 21: 0 0 5 4062 IO-APIC-fasteoi eth0 22: 0 0 3 413 IO-APIC-fasteoi sata_nv, NVidia CK804 23: 0 3 33 15976 IO-APIC-fasteoi sata_nv, ohci_hcd:usb2 30: 0 0 0 45 IO-APIC-fasteoi ioc0 31: 0 1 60 167974 IO-APIC-fasteoi ioc1 NMI: 0 0 0 0 Non-maskable interrupts LOC: 2759890 2759801 2759739 2759662 Local timer interrupts SPU: 0 0 0 0 Spurious interrupts PMI: 0 0 0 0 Performance monitoring interrupts PND: 0 0 0 0 Performance pending work RES: 24576 24110 57486 57850 Rescheduling interrupts CAL: 8662 1256 1313 362 Function call interrupts TLB: 2747 2494 1937 2075 TLB shootdowns THR: 0 0 0 0 Threshold APIC interrupts MCE: 0 0 0 0 Machine check exceptions MCP: 10 10 10 10 Machine check polls ERR: 1 MIS: 0 I am using a newly compiled Linux optimator 2.6.36-gentoo-r3 #2 SMP PREEMPT Sun Nov 28 14:42:26 EST 2010 x86_64 Dual Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 275 AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux I followed the Gentoo ALSA guide exactly.

I don't think it is a volume issue because when I try to play any file, the system just locks up and won't play the file. (need hard ^C's to get out of madplay, mplayer, etc). I've also tried mplayer with -ao alsa, and -ao oss. Both with the same result.

Ok, so this is weird. I've rebooted now, and now the sound works. I did remove +oss from use flags and did some recompiling with emerge --newuse world. Then I rebooted. I can't explain it, but the errors on loading the module are no longer there. I'll leave the bug open for now, but something is definitely fishy. Here are the last 1000 packages I installed. The ones after the last Sync are recompiled without oss.

There was a problem and it solved itself. You cannot now figure out what caused the problem and the information you need to figure it out is already lost.
I'm getting the error again. Perhaps it is a random event, but I'll try to reboot and see if it remains broken. No apps can play sound (even the progress bar does not move), even though volume levels are adjusted properly and unmuted in alsamixer and alsa loads with no errors.

Rebooted once, same problem as before. Rebooted again, problem went away, DMA position messages missing from boot log. Interrupt 22 is shared by sata_nv, NVidia CK804
I just had to reboot 5 times. On the fifth time, the module was loaded properly and I receive the following messages (when sound works): ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LACI] enabled at IRQ 22 Intel ICH 0000:00:04.0: PCI INT A -> Link[LACI] -> GSI 22 (level, high) -> IRQ 22 Intel ICH 0000:00:04.0: setting latency timer to 64 Four out of five times it didn't work and instead fails with: Jan 25 10:28:43 localhost kernel: ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LACI] enabled at IRQ 22 Jan 25 10:28:43 localhost kernel: Intel ICH 0000:00:04.0: PCI INT A -> Link[LACI] -> GSI 22 (level, high) -> IRQ 22 Jan 25 10:28:43 localhost kernel: Intel ICH 0000:00:04.0: setting latency timer to 64 Jan 25 10:28:43 localhost kernel: nvidia: module license 'NVIDIA' taints kernel.
