This is a stupid suggestion, but try running something like aumix or
something to turn the volume on the output channels on. For some reason,
on some soundcards, the driver somehow initializes the board to have 0%
volume on all output channels!!

It's possible that internally redhat compensates for this by doing that
"applying mixer settings" thing you see at bootup... which would explain
why it works in redhat and not in slackware...
