One of the reasons I've found for needing to run alsaconfig is that the
module doesn't get loaded on boot.  I'd suggest:

boot

run 
	$ lsmod > pre-alsa.txt

run
	# alsaconfig

run
	$ lsmod > post-alsa.txt
	$ diff -u pre-alsa.txt post-alsa.txt

You should see what module was added.

Add that module name to /etc/modules.

Reboot and see if you have sound.
