I actually face one more problem in 2.1.126 with sound.

When I try to use teh rvplayer...it says general error 1 and stops after playing
for few seconds. I have a AWE64. The problem seems to be pretty straightforward
to reproduce...thats why I am not attaching the strace logs. But, if anyone
wants more info, let me know.
