Yeah I have never had any problem with sounds and AMD...
I am not a big 64bit fan yet though...and still don't use 64bit versions of 
linux...even with 64bit processors...

I have always ran into dependency problems a lot...and it is just too much 
of a hassle...I will give it another year probably before we switch 
everything to 64bit...the minimal gain (especially when it comes to 
asterisk) vs 32bit...no hassle...just isn't worth it to me heh...
