First off, try the following sequence:
1. Run "alsamixer," and turn up the levels that seem useful to you. I
set mine at around 80-90%.
2. Run "/etc/rc.d/init.d/alsasound restart" to save your changes. You
don't have to do this explicitly, but I like to, in case I don't
shut down properly.
3. Run one of the cute GUI mixers, like gmix or kmix, and turn up the
levels again. I have no idea why this is necessary, but it is on my
machines.
Step 3 will need to be done with every boot.
Now, if that didn't work, make sure you're giving modules.conf enough
clues. I include a file I call "modules.alsa," and it contains the
following (for my little Intel sound chip):
# ALSA setup
alias char-major-116 snd
alias snd-card-0 snd-card-intel8x0
# OSS portion of ALSA setup
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss
alias /dev/sequencer snd-seq-oss
Then do steps 1 through 3. Hope this helps!
