Ive been having abit of difficulty getting sound to work in FC2. I did 
not have these problems in FC1.
While invoking xmms to play a wav file. the following pop-up window was 
observed:
couldn't open audio
Please check that
your soundcard is configured properly
you have the correct output plugin selected
no sound program is blocking the soundcard

I also noticed the following when starting the system with startx:
a series of messages saying audio_alsa: no cards found.

I ran system-config soundcard and it detected my ens1371 sound card and 
was able to play the test sound.
I tried to play the wav file again with the same popup window message 
occuring. I did a ctrl-alt-F1 to see what messages occured. The same 
"audio_alsa: no cards found" message (2 times) was seen.

I also do not have gnome sound events even after installing the libgnome 
update.

Please help.
