Hello,
I just installed fedora (9) on one of the latest Mac Pro, all is well except for the audio. I have no audio out of the main Tower speaker or via the headphones. Eventually I want to drive audio out of the optical ports. Any links to howto's or work-around would greatly appreciated.

Fedora uses pulseaudio by default. How are you determining that there is no output? i.e. what program are you using, and how
Try aplay -vv some.wav Try aplay -vv -Dhw:0,0 some.wav Try aplay -vv -Dplughw:0,0 some.wav
Are there error messages or does it look like it is playing without sound? Are there messages in /var/log/messages regarding sound at boot or while trying to play.
I don't use pulseaudio and don't know it very well, but there is more information here. http://www.pulseaudio.org
Could you run a script which provides more information about your sound setup and post the link back here?
The script is found at http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh
You can run the script so the results occur locally, by specifying the ---no-upload option.
alsa-info.sh --no-upload
You would then paste the output into your email instead of providing a link.
This information will enable me to determine if your setup is OK, and look for other problems.
