I see it loaded, however, it may be a wrong driver, do a

cat /proc/pci

find the line that has your audio controller, if your motherboard chipset is made by VIA or someone other manufacturers, you may need to use and alternative driver for it.

when i use the Cdplayer that comes with Lindows tho i get no sound, the cable is plugged into the sound card too so it should work.. oh hum ill try another player. but sound is working other than that.

**update, i tell lies, the cable was plugged into the DVD drive, but it worked no matter which drive i played music in under windows. oh hum no biggie.
