I tried both changes, to no avail (my system is a plain old 600 btw, no
letters following). Regardless of my settings, the appropriate device
nodes in /dev are not being created (and thus nothing sound-related
works). Is there any way I can force creation of the device nodes, or will
they just not be created until I find the correct settings?
