On every other distro that I've used (Mandrake, Caldera, Vectorlinux - all all 2.4.x kernels), all I have to do to get sound for xfce, etc., is to compile the esssolo1 kernel module and do a modprobe (or equivalent at boot time) for esssolo1.  The esssolo1 and soundcore modules get loaded, and the sound card works.

OK, I emerged sox, and now play xxx.wav works (via /dev/dsp), but xfce is still silent.  Any clues.  This works everywehre else (other distros), so I'm stumped.
