new attempt to solve an old problem with gkrellmsss

Hello,

I've resurfaced an old problem, and wanted to see if there was ever any  
resolution.  It's mentioned in a thread on the Gentoo forums at  
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-236638.html, and searching shows  
up at least one other thread.  In that case, the solution seemed to be  
creating a ~/.asoundrc, but I have not had any luck with that yet.

The problem is that when gkrellmss starts, I get a popup: Can't open  
ALSA monitoring.  Look for an "ALSA lib" console error message.  I now  
see nothing at all about alsa in my capture of stderr from my X  
session, and nothing in /var/log/messages or in dmesg.  The gkrellmss  
panel has  "Sound error? Click here to try to open."  In the past,  
clicking would eventually get it to work.  Now it just gives the same  
popup.

I'm currently on gkrellm 2.3.4, gkrellmss 2.6, and alsa 1.0.21.

Thanks for any hints or suggestions on how to track this down.

Jack
