I experienced the exact same effect and the exact same message when I had misconfigured the interrupt for my SB16 and attempted to play something. > I have included the relevant part of my GENERIC file.

This looks highly suspicious. I am not familiar with your hardware, however, I only specify one device on a given IRQ. How about removing the "device sb0" line, and leaving the mss0 device configured?

If you are actually detecting a Sound Blaster, I don't think that you have a "MPU-401" type "standalone" card. Perhaps you might also remove this config line? (Or just try any of the three "devices" you have listed one at a time.) > I have also included the relevant part of dmesg: > sb0 at 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 on isa > sb0: <SoundBlaster Pro 3.1> > mss0 at 0x530 irq 5 drq 0 on isa Detects a Sound Blast(ish) card, aaaaaaaaaaand the mss0? Spooky. Again, I would recommend removing your mss0 specifier and try just the sb0 device alone. > opl0 at 0x388 on isa } Looks like this got detected ok. > opl0: <Yamaha OPL-3 FM> } (wonder of wonders... ;-) ) > mpu0 at 0x330 irq 5 on isa > mpu0: <MPU-401 MIDI Interface 0.0 > > ^ | Ditto for this guy. I'm not much of an expert on configuring pesky devices; thus far the device support for my hardware has been just shy of flawless. But, it really seems like you have redundantly allocated resources to multiple sound cards; of which, you only (appear) to have one. -d Free the Source.
