Hi, Fernando and Mark:  Thank you for your prompt help and advice.

I removed the two offending modules with oss in the name, then I read
your email about not removing them as they are for emulating oss.  :(

So, I shut down the computer, waited, started the computer, and all is
well.  I am now onto the next step to do something with alsa mixer.  The
information was most useful.

There are multiple emails each time.  When I reply, should I just send
one email to the list, and not copy to you or Mark or whoever, or are
you set up to have the email received both on the list and your email
addresses?
Tom
