I doubt that jcd's behaviour is affected by moon phases.
Besides, moon phases aren't two months long.

Please show the contents of /proc/asound/cards.

I didn't change anything. What's the real problem here?

After I had upgraded the kernel (2.6.12 to 2.6.13), alsactl (1.0.8) has
started to complain that there is no soundcard SB0350 so I had to
manually edit /etc/asound.state and change (AFAIR revert back)
state.SB0350 to state.Audigy2. After I did that alsactl still moans:

/usr/sbin/alsactl: set_control:930: warning: name mismatch (Audigy SPDIF
Output Sample Rate/HD Analog Front Playback Volume) for control #219
/usr/sbin/alsactl: set_control:1025: bad control.219.value type

/proc/asound/cards:
0 [Audigy2        ]: Audigy2 - Audigy 2 ZS [SB0350]
                     Audigy 2 ZS [SB0350] (rev.4, serial:0x20021102) at
0x7c40, irq 11

That was the bug.  Others are called "fixes".
On 2.6.14, you get the same as on 2.6.12.

|bug| == |fix|  (It suddenly doesn't work anymore.)

OK, I stop complaining an start hoping everything's going to be fine :)
