sorry, its a typo.  i meant "hw:0,1".

most of ALSA-native apps should have options (or config) to choose the
pcm device.  for example,

	% aplay -Dhw:0,1 foo.wav

but in your case, i guess it won't fix the problem, because it's
VIA8233A. please make sure that /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/info shows
the subdevices_count = 1.  if it's 4, a driver bug.

do you hear any sounds or completely silent?

i know there have been bug reports about the stuttering sounds, and
bugs on UT and quake (most likely OSS-mmapped apps).  but the silence
seems like a different problem.
