Fedora & Sound: an excercise in frustration

[Mark]

[root at localhost ~]# lspci | grep Audio
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High
Definition Audio Controller (rev 02)
[root at localhost ~]#

I'm using the exact same audio card. no problems here except with
pidgin.. i don't have audio in there but all other apps are working
fine.

This is the kernel that i run (latest F7 kernel):
2.6.22.1-27.fc7

All other apps are just the latest in the F7 repo.
and audio was working for me on all the kernels that where in F7.
