Hi all,

I've recently upgraded one of my machines from 2.2.8 to 3.2-STABLE and my
sound has gone south.  I am now using Luigi's sound code (compiled into
the kernel) and under 2.2.8 I was using the standard sound code.  

Here's the problem - I can use xmcd or cdcontrol to play sounds through my
speakers just fine.  However I can no longer hear WAV files (while either
using splay or waveplay) and cannot hear mp3 using amp or x11amp.  Splay
and waveplay have different errors :

	splay - Failed to open sound device.

	waveplay - openDSP: Device busy

Both x11amp and amp say that they can't open up the audio device.  

Here's the relevant lines out of the dmesg:

pcm0 at 0x220 irq 10 drq 1 on isa
ESS1868 (rev 11)

If I recall correctly this is a Yamaha OPL card.  

Any ideas on what's happening?

Brett
