This makes me wonder if this is either related to an esound or kernel
bug. Or perhaps there is a difference in the way sound is configured in
the kernel or in esound in FC2 vs. FC3. Please? Does someone have a
clue?

Yeah, but I had too many other problems with FC2 on a another box with a
similar configuration. I can't wig out and go to FC2, I have to find
out what's happening and fix it on FC3.

Brand new install. The only thing I saved from the old setup was a
partition that I keep data on. Everything else was wiped. I even used
fresh home directories.

Or maybe people just don't have the same problems with the snd-intel8x0
driver? I dunno. Did you try a kernel upgrade?
Thanks for the reply.
