Rob,
With the latest kernels many of the sound hardware details need to
be specified in /etc/conf.modules (or included when invoking
insmod). You'll want to check out the docs in the kernel sources
"Documentation/sound/" directory. (The Sound-HOWTO isn't up to
date on this, AFAIK.)
Hope this helps.
