Sound doesn't work on my laptop with FC3T3. It did with FC2.
Here is the vital info:
On login I get this message:
Sound server informational message: Error while initializing the sound driver: device: default can't be opened for playback (Device or resource busy) The sound server will continue, using the null output device.
Sometimes after login I get this message:
Sound server fatal error: cpu overload, aborting
In hwbrowser I find:
Sound cards: Intel Corp. 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) AC'97 Audio Controller Manufacturer: Unknown Driver: snd-intel8x0
If I run system-config-sound:
The following audio device was detected: <blurb here, same as hwbrowser> When I press "Play Test Sound" the application hangs.
If I run tops, I find that artsd hogs the cpu cycles like crazy.
In dmesg everything looks normal as far as errors go. There doesn't appear to be a driver loaded for sound. Here is the only stuff I see that might be related to sound:
ICH5: chipset revision 2 ICH5: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later

All other logs are clean.
In /etc, I have a asound.state and an alsa dir.
asound.state looks normal and only contains stuff about mixer.
asound.conf is not present. in /etc/alsa, I have alsa.conf. There is nothing special in it.

I figured out how to turn off aRts: Start->Control Center -> Sound and Multi.->Sound System-> General. Turn off the "Enable the Sound System" option.
I also tried changing the audio device on the Hardware tab to alsa, with no effect.
I've update to kernel 2.6.9-1.643 and I've updated alsa to 1.0.6-3.
Any advice ? How do I troubleshoot this ?

Here I am running system-config-soundcard with system sound disabled in controlcenter. I can fix the 44.1khz problem if I enable sound in controlcenter, but then artsd goes nuts.
BTW: I don't have alsaconfig installed on my machine, not that I can find. Google archives talk about it. I looked in the changelog and it appears to have been removed from later alsa versions. Am I correct on this ?
$ cat /proc/asound/oss/sndstat Sound Driver:3.8.1a-980706 (ALSA v1.0.6 emulation code) Kernel: Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.9-1.643 #1 Fri Oct 22 14:48:08 EDT 2004i686 Config options: 0

This might be a KDE thing, but I'll report it anyway.
FindFiles hangs regularly. I haven't found a pattern, but here is one that works reliably on my machine:
Named: Myproject
Look in: file/home/krlux
Include subdirectories: enabled.
Did you ever resolve this with your laptop? I am getting exactly the same errors and experience with a new laptop I just purchased. I never had FC2 on this laptop before, it was a clean install of FC3. Didn't throw any errors during the install, but I get the same cpu overload with artsd going nuts until it shuts itself down.
output from /sbin/lspci: 00:1f:.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corp. 82891DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 03)
Mine is basically a KDE install. Pretty generic but KDE not Gnome.
Any help would be appreciated.
