Are you using gnome or kde? I spent ages trying to get sound working in fc5 once and the issue was that wen kde started, it loaded its own default levels before using my own, so it stoped the card working. Just a thought. Also, have you tryed fiddling with the levels in alsamixer from the terminal, not just the gui one? You're using the alsa driver for sound yeh?
