You appear to be missing some modules which should be loaded as below
snd-pcm-oss
snd-mixer-oss
snd-seq-oss
Open synaptic as root on the CLI, and see if the oss-compat package is
installed, if not, install it, then reboot, and see if sounds now work.
Your lsmod | grep snd should now show the above modules loaded in addition to
the previous modules, and perhaps now the sound is working.
Post back the latest output from, lsmod | grep snd
Nigel.
