Subject:   My sound doesn't work

My sound doesn't work.  I've been searching around google, I've tried
different things still no sound.  This is
some of my info.  I have a Sound Blaster Live  with Digital Audio
Output.  I read the handbook, and tried to follow the page about setting
up the Sound Card.

I added device pcm to my kernel.  Then I rebuilt the kernel.  Here's my
output, and it seems my computer
recognizes the device.

grep pcm /var/run/dmesg.boot
pcm0: <Creative EMU10K1> port 0xeec0-0xeedf irq 9 at device 9.0 on pci0
pcm0: <TriTech TR28602 ac97 codec>

Then I ran
cd /dev
sh MAKEDEV snd0

I cd to my /dev directory and did an ls -la to all the device nodes the
handbook says I should have: here's the
output.

/dev#ls -la audio

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root  wheel  6 Apr 14 18:03 audio -> audio0
/dev#ls -la dsp

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root  wheel  4 Apr 14 18:03 dsp -> dsp0
/dev#ls -la dspW

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root  wheel  5 Apr 14 18:03 dspW -> dspW0
/dev#ls -la midi

ls: midi: No such file or directory
/dev#ls -la mixer

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root  wheel  6 Apr 14 18:03 mixer -> mixer0
/dev#ls -la music

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root  wheel  6 Apr 14 18:03 music -> music0
/dev#ls -la sequencer

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root  wheel  10 Apr 14 18:03 sequencer -> sequencer0
/dev#ls -la pss

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root  wheel  4 Apr 14 18:03 pss -> pss0

I noticed, it didn't create a midi device node, this might be my
problem.  I noticed other people had this
problem, though I found no solutions for it.

Here's some more output, hopefully this helps someone..  I hope  I gave
enough information, and any
suggestions or replies would be appreciated.
