His name is Bill, and knowing he helped you with the installation
helps explain what you have and what might be going wrong.


Odds are that your sound is muted. It is also possible that
running the sndconfig script mucked something up.  Never fear,
between Bill and the rest of us on this list we'll get this
untangled for you.

Did you and Bill edit your modules.conf?

they use alot of hacks to get the access.  The problem with that approach 
is that it only deals with a particular situation rather than estanlishing 
something a screen reader can query and get an answer to in many 
situations.  What a horrable sentence.  Sorry, in a rush.
