Dell OptiPlex + sound on gentoo

Hi..
I've just installed Gentoo on a computer of mine... During the boot sequence with the live-cd my motherboard sound card was detected:

CD4236B:WS3/SB
driver=ad1848

But when my install was complete i've having som difficulties with the sound...
I guess the sound card shoud turn up in /proc/pci right? well, it doesn't...

I've compiled in the driver "ad1848" in my kernel, but when i run alsaconf it cant find any card..I have no idea what to do!

Iīve also compiled the sound driver in the kernel and alsaconf canīt find any card too. But the sound is working. XMMS, mplayer and all other applications are normally outputting sound.
