sound stopped after gfx card swap?
#1
hi all!
i have xbmc live dharma beta 2 installed on an amd3000.
i did something really stupid, i unplugged my nvidia 7300gt and plugged in an 8500gt (needed for the vdpau) functionality, *without* doing any software changes in linux (i wouldn't know how), and the weird thing is, everything gfx related works just fine, now 1080p playback is perfect , but sound stopped working...any ideas? what's extra weird is that sound doesn't work even when booting from the xbmc live CD ! i tried aplay on an avi file (i didn' have an mp3 file at the time), and it played some scratchy sounds, so i suppose the sound should work, but it doesnt...
any ideas from the symptoms alone?

thanks very much
