no sound in ubuntu command line

[Linux for blind general discussion]

Try to modprobe it by hand.
modprobe -v snd-cs46xx
Then try the aplay command again.
You should also be able to run amixer controls at this point.
You can do a lsmod|grep snd-cs46xx to see if it has loaded.
What you do next would depend on the output of the above.
Just do a uname -r to make sure that the running kernel is infact 
4.4.0-36-generic
