I have been updating in the Rawhide tree since shortly after installing Fedora 9 in May and the progress has been great. I am now running into a some issues that I wanted help on and thought it might be beneficial for all, as it is going to alpha beta for fc10.
First off my hardware specs since my machine is fairly new and this is why I went to rawhide
intel quad 6600 with nvidia ultra 790i bridge chiset on a evga motherboard and twin sli configured nvida 8600gt video cards with 6GB DD3 ram.
the big problem is that with the latest round of updates alsa went from 1.0.17 to 1.0.18 however when running also info is still shows the drivers at 1.0.17 which I am guessing is why my audio suddenly stopped working.

despite the clear existance of my sound card and webcam mic neither show up in the pulse audio tools and when trying a alsamixer -c 1 or 0 i get
wrong -c argument '0' or
wrong -c argument '1'
/var/log messages gives this when attempting to start pulseaudio
