You missed a couple of modules the one for your sound card for instance and the ac97.

You will not need all the ones I have but you will need the CONFIG_SND_MPU401_UART=m,
CONFIG_SND_AC97_CODEC=m and CONFIG_SND_VIA82XX=m for sure. Plus you need the packages alsa-base and alsa-utils installed. Then once you have the proper modules run the
alsaconf as root and pick your card from the list. And as normal user in a console window run the
alsamixer and set the volumes on the Master and PCM channels to about 75% and exit with the ESC key and the volumes should now be saved as default for when you next boot. What it looks like when working.
