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?

ah, so, do you have a realtek motherboard with onboard sound and a seperate ati soundcard?

Did you go to alsamixer from terminal? made sure everything is turned up (while using the alsa driver)
