Yeah I've found the same results, and they don't tell me if it's
possible to get some more output or not.  I've never seen lmsensors
really working with any board I've had.  All the information I could
find for lmsensors with my particular board was old.  The conclusion can
only be that lmsensors is obsolete because it persistently doesn't work
and that I'll be better off getting a digital thermometer and attaching
its sensor to an appropriate place.

But who knows, perhaps it does work and I only need to find out how to
get it to work.
