7.04 or 7.10?  There's no 7.  Going from 7.04 to 8.04 is unsupported, as
that involves skipping a release.  But anyway, 8.04 uses PulseAudio for
the sound server.  Perhaps try playing with your /etc/pulse/default.pa
to make the default be to skip pulse and go straight to ALSA?  I know
that's necessary with MythTV.
