Have you installed the soundsupport into the kernel? If not, you must do so
(take a look at the kernel-HOWTO). You must enable soudsupport in the
kernelconfig and you can choose your special hardware and special settings.
After that you have to boot with the new kernel.
Look at the startmessages for soundmodule. You can type "lsmod" at the
commandline to proof the loaded modules. A list should appeare with sound
or soundcore. When not type "insmod sound" at the commandline and the look
what happens. I hope will get a correct message.
 
Good luck......Tommi
