Hi -

Compiled and installed latest alsa drivers/utils/tools on severn... 
did ./snddevices and ./utils/alsaconf.  This seems to get me a 
working alsa setup, I can play mp3s through xmms set for alsa9 output 
(after adding the appropriate rpms).  I used the gnome-volume-control 
applet to change the volume (and met the existing bug

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=105802

So everything is good except.... alsamixer segfaults on startup

[root at localhost alsa-driver-0.9.7a]# alsamixer
Segmentation fault

I looked in bugzilla for anything mentioning alsa but there is 
nothing.  Alsactl seems to work okay.

[root at localhost alsa-driver-0.9.7a]# cat /proc/asound/cards

                     ESS Maestro3 PCI at 0xec00, irq 5

Nothing is generated in /var/log/messages for each segfault in 
alsamixer.

does this sound like something I should bug... bit suspicious I 
couldn't find anything mentioning alsa in Bugzilla?
