[gentoo-user] Where has my sound gone?

[Peter Humphrey]

Hello List,

I was getting fed up with the bloat and maintenance headaches with my setup, 
which used the kde desktop profile and emerge kde-meta.

So I formatted the root partition and installed from scratch. This time I 
kept the standard profile and only emerged the packages I wanted. I kept the 
kernel config (2.6.39-r3), so all the modules should be present as before. I 
have ALSA_CARDS="hda-intel" in make.conf.

But I have no sound! KDE tells me the hardware doesn't work, and alsaconf 
says it can't detect any PCI hardware. Lspci -k shows snd-hda-intel module 
loaded though, so I can't see what's missing.

Any clues, anyone?
