It does not look like alsa is running. Have you configured alsa as per
the instructions in the web site? Is alsa starting correctly? (for
example, do you have a directory named "/proc/asound"?). What are the
contents of your /etc/modules.conf? What kernel modules do you have
loaded? ("/sbin/lsmod")
