Excellent - I too encountered this problem when trying to upgrade to
pre6, which was annoying since I was particularly looking forward to DTS
audio.

On a related note, now that most distros are using kernel 2.6 which uses
ALSA as its sound system, would it not make sense to have ALSA support
enabled by default in the official RPMS?
