greetings,
I've got a computer that looks ever so pretty with these:-
------cpu amd64 2 cores
-------o/s cblfs linux 64-bit only pulse audio -0.9.21
------gui kde-4.4.5 xorg7.5
It tells me (in sinage ) that it has all of these:-
[ ~ ]# ls -l /dev/snd
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 80 Sep 4 22:27 by-path
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 10 Sep 4 22:27 controlC0

but despite its pretty face and oodles of stuff for making sound, in KDE
it is as dumb as a stone.
It seems KDE 'deemeth' that my sound card is a 'dummy.'; which is quite
strange as I disabled 'dummy' for alsa in the kernel compilation. Stranger
still in that I can get sound on the command line prior to startkde with
aplay and even in konsole.
So a little advice would be appreciated
