Alsa sound drivers missing on FC2

[Jeff Vian]

I just performed a new (clean) install of FC2.  MSI mobo with via 
chipset and audio on-board.

 From watching this list and reading it appears that FC2 should have 
installed the alsa sound system by default.  My system did not.

The listing of my sound modules loaded is below, and in my case it 
clearly uses the OSS driver and not alsa.  Sound does work, but I have 
not tested the quality.  

Did I miss something or did the promised alsa drivers not make it into 
this release?
