look under the preferences and make sure that the alsa-settings are all completly correct and that its using the alsa module thing.

i have checked the alsa module but it does not work
Neither the alsa module nor OSS module work

Only Xmms? Have you gone through the Xmms settings to see if you can configure the soundcard to use?

[XiaoKJ]

XMMS allows you to choose the sound card to play music.

Gehidore is actually trying to tell you to check out this problem -- your default(card 0) soundcard recognised by the machine may be the virtual midi card which makes no output...

And from your lsmod output you have both alsa and OSS modules -- and it may very well be the problem. chack it out!

Be careful -- alsa defaults are muted!
