How do you test it? Using xmms? Did you heard any sound when the installer test the sound card?

Probably a module not loaded...

What is the output of

dmesg | grep via*

Can also be mixer problem ( muted )

Okay,

modules are detected... that's a good thing !!

open kmix/aumix and unmute everything !! ( also push volumes up )

Try again.

go to kde control center and select " arts at boot ".

If does not work ... can you have sound when you are root ?

Last thing in some mother boards jack's plug what not at the right place ... try a swap.

Using xmms, do check you've the correct output plugin selected. Since you're using OSS, select OSS output plugin .. and check the volume setting too..
