No :-(
OK first did you install a Kernel with Sound for the card enabled?
are you as user in the "audio" group? $ groups will tell
NO :-/
addgroup will help you.
So then have you looked if the device exist .
ls /dev/dsp*
My crystal-ball looses focus.
Well can you play as _root_ some music.
If yes then as _user_ not being in the "audio" group might be a reason.
