Sound broken by Synaptic. Anyone else? Any thoughts

Well... it's not unheard-of that a /dev file simply goes away (during an
update and the like).  Perhaps you might wish to re-create it.  Using my
own /dev/dsp as a referent, you'd do a:

# mknod /dev/dsp c  14  3

If that doesn't work, you're no worse off than you were before...
