I would highly recommend using the planetccrma fedora core 3 packages. See
http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/
I just started using the Audiophile 2496 along with the onboard sound of my motherboard
and the planetccrma kernel and packages work flawlessly. They have a package called
envy24control or something like that which works very well with the 2496.
Hope this helps,
Alan

Subject: [linux-audio-user] audiophile 2496 with Fedora Core 3
Hello,
I'm new to the Linux sound world. I'm trying to get an Audiophile
2496 to
work on Fedora Core 3. I was able to install the OSS driver;
however, it
isn't putting sound out the SPDIF output, which is what I want. I
triedto run alsamixer but got a message
alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device or
address
Searching the web I see many people claim to get the Audiophile 2496
working but they describe how they did it in very general terms
that I
don't understand.
Can anyone help, or point me to the right forum if this isn't it?
Thanks so much,
Mike
