[conspire] sound prob Ensoniq ES1371 on Fedora 7

Note: I posted this on the Fedora users email list on
Monday, 20th August 2007. I have not seen a reply so
I'm trying here. There had been other postings to the
Fedora users email list regarding sound problems but I
didn't think the discussions covered my issue. So either
the subject does not convey the problem I'm having,
people are not familiar with Esoniq ES1371 so did not
read the email, people were not interested in the issue,
etc.

If someone can offer suggestions via email that will be
great. I can bring my computer to the CABAL on Saturday,
25th August, if someone could offer suggestions there.

Should I have used a different subject that better
describes the problem?

Should I have put other information in the email or
removed information?

Here is the email I posted.

Thank you,

Darlene Wallach

[begin email posted to Fedora users email list]
I recently installed Fedora 7. During the install I
heard sound during the sound test. After completing
the install I still heard sound during the sound test.
I installed Macromedia since I want to have access
to political videos regarding Palestine on youtube.
When I attempted to watch and listen to a youtube video
I could see the video but could not hear sound. I
brought up the gui version of alsamixer and don't
remember what I did or if I changed anything but now
I do not hear sound during the sound test.

Here is some of the output of scsconfig.log - I
attempted to just have sound information.

I tried looking through the Fedora email that discussed
sound issues. I apologize profusely if this problem
has already been asked and answered.

Thank you for your attention and advice.
