Hello,

I recently installed 4.5 on a machine that was running 4.2 earlier.  The
sound worked perfectly under 4.2 but no longer works completly under 4.5.

xmms locks when playing audio;

cdcontrol can play audio CD's perfectly

cat somefile.wav >> /dev/dsp  ; This makes loud noise

mpg123 file.mp3 ; decodes a 4min song in seconds and adds 
                  a number of play interrupt timeout ... entries to 
		  dmesg, makes no noise on the audio device. 

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this without reverting to
the 4.2?  I have done the
$sh MAKEDEV snd0

here is the output from dmesg and /dev/sndstat
------------------------------------------------------------------------
su-2.05a# dmesg | grep "pcm"
pcm0: <Creative CT5880-A> port 0xd800-0xd83f irq 9 at device 15.0 on pci0
pcm0: play interrupt timeout, channel dead
pcm0: play interrupt timeout, channel dead
