[AG-TECH] sound card problem

All,

oss-sound detects the sound card (PCI-128 Soundblaster)
	Audio PCI97 STAC9721
However, when I ran arm-eventlistener and logged in to the lobby or the test
room, rat did not get started automatically.  When I was in the test room, I
ran rat manually to that room, I could see somebody there.
Since rat did not work properly, I looked at the log file what was written
at the start-up.  Toward the end of the file, there are some complaining:
	Sep 10 10:20:48 chlagaudio rc: Starting keytable:  succeeded
	Sep 10 10:20:50 chlagaudio oss:  succeeded
	Sep 10 10:20:50 chlagaudio gpm: gpm startup succeeded
	Sep 10 10:20:50 chlagaudio oss-sound: Starting sound configuration:

loaded
	Sep 10 10:20:50 chlagaudio oss-sound: Use soundoff to unload it and try
again.
	Sep 10 10:20:50 chlagaudio oss-sound: Bad mixer control name

	Sep 10 10:20:51 chlagaudio oss-sound: Bad mixer control name

	Sep 10 10:20:51 chlagaudio oss-sound: Bad mixer control name 'mute.micmute'
	Sep 10 10:20:51 chlagaudio oss-sound: Bad mixer control name

	Sep 10 10:20:51 chlagaudio oss-sound: Bad mixer control name

	Sep 10 10:20:51 chlagaudio oss-sound: SNDCTL_MIX_NREXT: Device not
configured
	Sep 10 10:20:51 chlagaudio last message repeated 4 times
	Sep 10 10:20:51 chlagaudio oss-sound: sound
	Sep 10 10:20:51 chlagaudio rc: Starting oss-sound:  succeeded
	Sep 10 10:20:51 chlagaudio xfs: xfs startup succeeded

Do these errors have something to do with the problem with rat?  Can any
body recommend me what to do, please?
