Latest unstable (25Oct 19:57) works from command line with mplayer, 
without the proc oss fix.
aplay still works but only with dmix.
Now also almost working in gnome with pulse, sound is recognisable but 
with lots of interference/corruption.
Machine did not crash at any point!

This was running on 2.6.26... is this a problem? SUPPORTED_KERNELS says 
2.6.25 or earlier?
