unix is picky about spelling: try again with

lsof|grep /dev/snd

Everything up to here, looks ok. Install the rpm package aumix, then try
the "aumix -q" command again.

As Bit Twister already posted, there is a difference between grep and grp.

Everything looks good so far. Pulseaudio is running, and the volume settings
look ok.

Run kmix (right click on the speaker icon, and select show mixer window).

At the top, just below the toolbar, there's a setting with the title "Current mixer",
that has a drop down selection box.

What options does the drop down selection box have on your system, and which is
currently selected?

Also, in kmix, select the Switches tab. There should be a button for the Channel
mode. Try each option, 2ch, 4ch, 6ch, and test the sound with each.

Next, run kcontrol, select Sound & Multimedia, then Sound system. Ensure that
the box "Enable the sound system" is selected. Select the "Test Sound" button.
Does the sound work there?

Which kernel are you using? Post the results of

uname -a

The vmlinuz-2.6.24.5-desktop-2mnb kernel is working fine
for me, but the following three recent kernels all have
varied from glitchy to non-functional on sound.

vmlinuz-2.6.24.5-desktop-1mnb
vmlinuz-2.6.24.7-tmb-desktop-2mdv
vmlinuz-2.6.24.7-tmb-desktop-3mdv

Going into KDE Control Center-->Sound & Multimedia-->
Sound System-->Hardware and changing from the audio
device currently selected to something else (or from
autodetect to Alsa or OSS) may start it working.
Other things that may help figure out the problem:
Omit the " " of course.

"lspcidrake -v | fgrep -i AUDIO" will tell you which driver your card
uses by default

"grep sound-slot /etc/modprobe.conf" will tell you what driver it
currently uses

"/sbin/lsmod" will enable you to check if its module (driver) is
loaded or not

"/sbin/chkconfig --list sound" and "/sbin/chkconfig --list alsa" will
tell you if sound and alsa services are configured to be run on
initlevel 3

"aumix -q" will tell you if the sound volume is muted or not
"/sbin/fuser -v /dev/dsp" will tell which program uses the sound card.

Cheers!

just a thought...

I was previously using the kernel 2.6.22.9 and I had to give up configuring
Kscd ( which was starting by default...) as no matter what, no sound,was
coming out of it,( Kaffeine and Amarok were working fine...), the Cd was
not even spinning; now that I have upgraded to 2.6.25 Kscd work without me
having to configure anything...so you may have a point here, and this is
why, in a previous post in this tread, I was insisting for the OP to write
which program was he using...

I believe there is something wrong/or not plugged or not configured with
your speaker.
