alsa-base does not contain any sound drivers. alsa-base is the init.d
script which loads sound drivers (and a few other technical details). Do
you have an alsa-modules package installed which matches your kernel? (I
assume you're running a 2.4 series kernel. 2.6 has ALSA built in.)

Package alsa-modules has no available version, but exists in the database.
This typically means that the package was mentioned in a dependency and
never uploaded, has been obsoleted or is not available with the contents
of sources.list
However the following packages replace it:
alsa-base
E: Package alsa-modules has no installation candidate
And yes, I'm running 2.4.18-bf2.4
Once you have installed the alsa-modules package, you can run
dpkg-reconfigure alsa-base to select your sound driver.
I'll do that. Perhaps I missed something.
