Thank you, flo, for the pointer.
Their page was very helpful.  I got a lot further with it.

I'm still not up yet, though.  Here's where I'm at today...

ALSA recompiled with the soundcards I have.
'alsaplayer' compiled.
'envy24control' compiled.

'Alsaplayer' plays via the alsa output. (Yea!!!)

'envy24control' now runs and sees 'hw:0' but doesn't do
squat other than show me the output volume.

The output was REALLY LOUD and nothing would turn it down.
I discovered that the volume control on 'alsaplayer' would
turn it dowm.

Tried starting 'qjackctl'.  It starts 'jackd' but now it
craps out for different reasons.  Oh, well, I'll just try
to look at that as "progress". ;-)

Here's the latest trace from 'qjackctl':

Okay, I can take a break now. :-)

Any help of any kind will be greatly appreciated!
