No problem, but the good news is that you were right about getting the
latest cvs sources fixing the problem.  Last night I downloaded it from
cvs, compiled, installed, and removed the old modules and reinserted the
new ones, and still had no audio.  This morning I tried the ol' reboot
trick, and that seemed to fix it.  I guess just rmmod'ing and modprobing
them didn't quite do the trick.  Yay, I have sound in my recordings
again!

Thanks,

Paul
