Pay attention to how amixer displays the names of the controls i.e., 
master is different than 'Master'.

I got that to work, but probably because of the OSS drivers for my sound chip, the quality of the Dectalk speech sounded like it had been sampled to half its original value with a lot of aliasing. As such, I decided to try getting Alsa running on here again. I followed the instructions found at

If I do a "make clean" from the drivers, library, and utilities directory, is there a chance that my OSS drivers will re-assert themselves until I can find out what's going wrong? Bad-sounding audio is better than none, after all.
