Hey guys I've been using OpenSUSE 11 for a few weeks.. it works well.. but since a last few days i've been encountering a very strange problem.. every time I boot openSUSE 11 I need to restart the sound configuration.. I mean I've to open Yast and then stop sound and restart it.. this only for listening the sounds.. I don't know why its bothering me.. what could be the problem.. Only MPlayer gives the output of the sound and no other application does (before restarting sound).. Please guide me..

Apply

Click on hardware tab-> Select the audio device->Autodetect
