Ubantu lost sound after updating packeges


Hi,
I am using Ubantu9.04 and before few days I have tried installing amsn.It prompted to dependencies for following packages :
1. farsight2-0.0.17
2. gstreamer-0.10.27
After installing that I have lost sound,and the error was :

"The volume control did not find any elements and/or devices to control. This means either that you don't have the right GStreamer plug-ins installed, or that you don't have a sound card configured."

aplay -l

gives output - sound card not found

but lspci -v - list the sound card

What should be the problem ?

Thanking You.

You didn't install all the gstreamer dependencies. Go back to your repos, and update all of your gstreamer packages.
