udev-068 fails to process my rules correctly, and does not create /dev/snd/* or /dev/video/*. I have tried modifying my rules, reverting to the default /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules, and loads of other stuff but to no avail. See http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-2704728.html#2704728 for more infotion. I have downgraded to udev-058 (the previous stable version) and this problem dissapears. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge "=udev-0.68" 2. Reboot 3. /dev/snd/* and /dev/video/* are not created I am using 2.6.12-nitro5, but have also tried 2.6.13-gentoo which doesn't work either.

What does 'tree /sys/class/sound' show? Also, what does 'udevtest /sys/class/sound/controlC0 sound' run as root show? This works fine for me here...
Appologies for the delay, but I have been rather busy lately as I am back to college.

Forgot to reopen.
I am having the same issue on two machines. "udevstart" is solving the issue for me, I read in some other forums that adding this into the /etc/init.d/alsasound might help. I will test this later...
Please fix your local rules up first, and get them to work properly, before worrying about the sound ones. And, does the 070 release fix your problems?
Alrighty, just upgrading and fixing the errors alone did not fix it, but the problem seems to be that it was a bug in the earlier version. I now have the following in my 10-local.rules (just appropriate ones), which are exactly the same as the original ones except without USER="audio",: # Sound SUBSYSTEM="sound", NAME="%k", GROUP="audio", MODE="0666" # v4l SUBSYSTEM="video4linux", NAME="%k", GROUP="video", MODE="0666" This is overriding the default ones, so it just puts them in /dev/. *sigh* If I put NAME="snd/%k" for the sound stuff (or just remove it), as expected it works fine. This must have been fixed somewhere after 058, which is why it no longer worked for me. Thanks for your help, and sorry for my stupidity. :P Stonki, did you get your problem sorted? If not post you info and we can have a look through it.
