speakup changes in cvs

[jwantz at hpcc2.hpcc.noaa.gov]

Hi All,
I have observed some odd behavior.  My Speakup (well actually the whole
kernel) was locking up.  Speakup is working fine, but Alsa doesn't work.
 I have tried 0.5.11/10 and 0.90beta7 with the same results.  However, I
noticed that in /proc/asound/sndstat that it was complaining about sound
devices not being initialized.  This seems to be a common alsa problem,
because I find all kinds of references to it on the net.  What is
lacking is solutions.  I'm using an AWE64 Gold and I am compiling in
isapnp support when I configure the drivers.Well, one good thing about
this problem I'm learning a lot about Alsa!
