Soundcard not working
 

As the topic says, unfortunately I can't be any more specific than that. I switched from KDE to Enlightenment, and suddenly my soundcard doesn't work with anything. I emerged esound, and added esd to autostart, but I cannot seem to get any program to use the new sound daemon.

I just have no idea how sound works in linux, it's just magically always worked. Can someone suggest something?

Here is the output of lspci, if that will help diagnose something.
