I've got through over 40,000 messages in the past day or so, so I hope I didn't miss anything... Sound on my AC97 was working just fine through FC5. When upgrading to FC6, though, I get nothing. It *thinks* it is playing: the equalizer visualisation in Amarok shows it is playing sound, system-config-soundcard finds my card, but I can't hear anything. I know that the hardware itself works; booting off of a kubuntu LiveCD gives me sound. I know enough to know that I don't know enough; here is a link to output from: lsmod | grep snd lspci dmesg as well as my modprobe.conf file.

Fired up alsamixer and play with the levels while you're playing something. "M" toggles Mute, up/down arrow for levels If that works save the settings with "alsactl store" Hope that helps.
