I dislike jack.
Usually on gentoo for many many years. pulseaudio + alsa. No jack-audio-connection kit.
open alsamixer
unmute anything in pulseaudio
change to your hardware
unmute anything
most guys forget to unmute pulseaudio or the hardware. Alsamixer is very bad designed in my point of view.
for myself on 3 different notebooks pulsaudio worked in the past 4 years on linux mint and gentoo.

Suggestion:
Boot up some livecd, no idea? Linux mint, knoppix? whatever, and test the sound. some card games come with some sound. e.g. pysol
and plesae try at least 4-5 different live-cds from different distros.
8 years ago pclinuxos was very awesome. knoppix is the same. than was there a linuxgamecd.
