Hi Lee,
When I had the "sound enabled" in kde, ps aux returned


artsd -F 10 -s 4096 -a alsa -d -s55 -m artsmessage -c
drkonqui -l 3 -f

which I confess I don't understand but it may tell you
whether KDE is using default. If this is irrelevant
where should I look for the hw:0,0 / default setting? 

Since the euphoria of the last missive it has come to
my notice that only one application will output sound
while the rest will block waiting for the application
to close the device. So it looks as if aRts still has
a  role to play.

On the alsa-project soundcard matrix page the only
tested SB LS cards are SB0310 P17 and SB0410 P17.
Would they have the same chip as the Holco Enterprise
Co, Ltd/Shuttle Computer: Unknown device 3038 ?
