You need the smb filesystem kernel module loaded (modprobe smb iirc). And the 
smbfs package must be installed also.

Default sound system on 2.4.x kernel is OSS. Have you tried running

 # modconf

and have a look if your sound cards driver is running? You need to know the 
chipset of the laptop to know which driver to load.
Also the user must have read priveleges to /dev/dsp.
It's usually easiest to do

 # adduser username audio

to enable sound for a particular user.
