Fedora core 5 sound broken after update from FC4

I don't understand why this is so hard to get a 16-bit ISA sound card working. It worked fine in FC3 and FC4. Anyway, here's the output of system-config-soundcard:

[root at electron ~]# system-config-soundcard
cat: /etc/asound.conf: No such file or directory
amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such device
cat: /proc/asound/pcm: No such file or directory

The popup window detects that I have a "SB16 PnP - CTL0031" but when I play the test sound, it immediately just comes back with "Did you hear the sample sound". I answer NO. It tells me to read /root/scsound.log, which is listed here:

Hopefully this means something to someone. Any guesses appreciated. Let me reiterate, IT WORKED IN FC4 up until 16 hours ago. The speakers ARE turned on. I've checked all the obvious stuff like whether or not the computer is plugged in. Thanks.
