OK, with my ~/.asoundrc file moved out of the way (but with the fixed config file installed): # aplay /usr/share/sounds/login.wav ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:901:(snd_pcm_direct_initialize_slave) requested or auto-format is not available ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:876:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to initialize slave # aplay -D hw:0,0 /usr/share/sounds/login.wav Playing WAVE '/usr/share/sounds/login.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz, Stereo aplay: set_params:900: Sample format non available # aplay -D plughw:0 /usr/share/sounds/login.wav Playing WAVE '/usr/share/sounds/login.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz, Stereo Is moving ~/.asoundrc out of the way sufficient? Or do I need to reboot or logout/login again to clear something?

I'm not setting a reply-to header. My e-mail messages do have an SMTP envelope from field of tytso@thunk.org, but that shouldn't be visible to MUA's. (It just means that MTA's send bounce messages to tytso@thunk.org, which I need to do since my outgoing e-mail path goes through thunk.org, and if I didn't do I might trip certain spam filters which check to see if the domain of the SMTP "MAIL FROM" matches the domain of the sending SMTP server.) In any case, my outgoing RFC 822 message headers on my end looks like this: To: Stas Sergeev Cc: Takashi Iwai , Linux Kernel Mailing List , Roberto Oppedisano Bcc: tytso@mit.edu Subject: Re: [patch] snd-pcsp: adjust help texts to frighten users Reply-To: In-Reply-To: <482C99A4.8030201@aknet.ru> It might be interesting to see what you receive it on your end.
