[Voyage-linux] Problems with Alsa

Guys,

I am working to create a mserv server from a box with a via cv860A.  The
idea is to have a device that I can plug into my network, and into my
stereo that will play my oggs and mp3s off of my nfs server.  The
default voyage kernel does not support sound, so I recompiled the kernel
for voyage 0.3.1 and added sound support.  It boots fine and the modules
load great.  I don't know much about creating device nodes, so I did
this on my ubuntu workstation from within the dev directory:

    tar -c $(find -group audio) > audio_dev.tar

I copied the file to the voyage box and untarred it into the dev
directory.  After installing aumix, mpg321, and ogg123, it came time to
test it.  I can adjust volume levels and play an mpg.  However, I get
the following error when I try to play an ogg:

ALSA lib confmisc.c:670:(snd_func_card_driver) cannot find card '0'
ALSA lib conf.c:3500:(_snd_config_evaluate) function
snd_func_card_driver returned error: No such device
ALSA lib confmisc.c:391:(snd_func_concat) error evaluating strings
ALSA lib conf.c:3500:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_concat
returned error: No such device
ALSA lib confmisc.c:1070:(snd_func_refer) error evaluating name
ALSA lib conf.c:3500:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_refer
returned error: No such device
ALSA lib conf.c:3968:(snd_config_expand) Evaluate error: No such device
ALSA lib pcm.c:2143:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM default
ALSA snd_pcm_open error: No such device
Error: Cannot open device alsa09.

I have no idea what this error means.  If anyone knows where I can go
from here, I appreciate it.  It may be that I need to ask someone in the
alsa project about this, but I thought I'd check here first.

Thanks,
