Artsd + alsa == problems

[Pedro Fernandes Macedo]

Is it just me or artds doesnt like alsa? I'm using a Sb live audio card 
and I get lots of errors from artsd ... all the time they appear , 
saying something like "cpu overloaded. error"... (forgot to write the 
message down and now I'm away from fc2t1).

Btw , why alsa-utils isnt installed by default if a sound card is 
detected and some audio apps are installed?
One of the things that I've noticed that need some tweaking: 
system-config-sound . It doesnt unmute the necessary channels and doesnt 
give you an option to raise the volume , so you end up thinking that 
sound isnt working at all...

I'm gonna look for answers for this in bugzilla ...
