Sound not working after upgrading FC1 -> FC2

Yes, I've checked the archives but it still doesn't work.  It of course 
worked fine in FC1.

One suggestion was to use the ALSA driver.  How do I do that??

The sound device is built into the motherboard and is a:
00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. 
VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 50)

When I run system-config-sound it shows:
The following audio device was detected.
Vendor: VIA Technologies
Model: VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller
Module: snd-via82xx

/etc/modules.conf contains the following relevant bits:
alias sound-slot-0 via82cxxx_audio
post-install sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -L 
 >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
pre-remove sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -S 
 >/dev/null 2>&1 || :


/etc/modprobe.conf contains the following bits:
alias snd-card-0 snd-via82xx
install sound-slot-0 /sbin/modprobe --first-time --ignore-install 
sound-slot-0 && { /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -L >/dev/null 2>&1 
|| :; }
remove sound-slot-0 { /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -S >/dev/null 
2>&1 || :; } ; /sbin/modprobe -r --first-time --ignore-remove sound-slot-0


The volume control app shows entries for both "Analog Devices AD1980 
[Audio Mixer (OSS)]" as well as "VIA 8235 [Alsa Mixer]"

After a reboot almost all the volumes are very low. I cranked them all 
up and still no sound.


Any suggestions?
