Title:
  No sound after trying to install latest ALSA from OSS

Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  After installing 10.04 initially, my sound didn't work at all for x64
  on my Dell XPS with a Creative X-Fi. After looking through various
  forums I installed the OSS driver, and everything worked for a while.
  I don't know what happened, but everything suddenly stopped working -
  I must have done something, but I have no clue what. It wasn't
  obviously after installing anything. But I couldn't get anything
  working again, including by reinstalling OSS. I decided to try to
  revert to the newest ALSA drivers and go from there. I followed
  several guides, including
  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting, and the script
  at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6589810#post6589810

  Running that script got me the closest to working - the drivers show
  up as loaded now, for example, and I hear a brief crackle when Ubuntu
  loads, but not the proper loading sound. However I still have no
  sound, and when I try to test with aplay, I get "aplay:
  pcm_write:1603: write error: Input/output error" Flash is also now
  freezing Chrome tabs whenever I encounter a Flash page. The volume
  control widget in the notification area is missing.
