Problem with HDA Intel Sound with Realtek ALC861-VD

[Bloomer510]

I searched the forums for answers, and my sound worked, then i did yum -y update. and now i am back to the drawing board. i was following this thread:

http://forums.fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=156470

it worked perfectly. now when i try to do the exact same thing and type in the command:

/etc/init.d/alsasound restart

it tells me:
[root@localhost ~]# /etc/init.d/alsasound restart
Shutting down sound driver: ERROR: Module snd_hda_intel is in use
ERROR: Module snd_mixer_oss is in use
ERROR: Module snd_pcm is in use by snd_hda_intel
ERROR: Module snd_timer is in use by snd_pcm
ERROR: Module snd is in use by snd_hda_intel,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer
done
ALSA driver is already running.

when i ran it before updating, it did not give me this message, and i am completely lost. I am also new to linux so if you could please leave detailed instructions. Thanks in advanced!!!!1

I too am having the problem on the Realtek ALC262 chipset (from the Intel 82801G ICH7 Family) under KDE running on Fedora Core 6, 2.6.20-1.2952. I have tried and tried to get sound running -- I have read dozens of posts, and nothing seems to work. Interestingly, in the last kernel I had, 2.6.20-1.2948, the sound would work if you did some really strange things like wait until the aRts server would give up the card, and run a soundcard detection... When I upgraded kernels it never worked again.
