No sound with new install



Hi debian folks,

I installed Debian last week (for the first time), and things
generally went very nicely.

One thing which isn't yet working though is sound. I'm currently
using the kernel from debian-backports
(linux-image-3.2.0-0.bpo.2-amd64) in order to get my ethernet
working, but the same thing happenned with the stock 2.6 kernel too
(linux-image-2.6.32-5-amd64)

Any suggestions at all of things to try would be most appreciated.
Below is hopefully relevant output from interesting commands.

Many thanks,

Nick
