Well, It looks like it's a bug. I had pulse audio and took it out to try 
alsa.  Now what can I do, go back to10.04 where sound worked?  Can I Buy 
a different brand of sound card? I have Premeir video editor on an xp 
partition I could use it, but I really want to use Cinelerra and kino.
Does anybody have any other solutions. I don't have any idea what is 
doable if this is a bug.                                 Doug
