lspci reports "04:05.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB
Audigy LS"

dmesg says nothing about sound... it's been a while since i last
rebooted this box ;D

when i try to start alsasound manually, it says the following:

 * Loading ALSA modules ...
 * Could not detect custom ALSA settings.  Loading all detected alsa drivers.
 * Unable to find any ALSA drivers. Have you compiled alsa-drivers correctly?
 * ERROR: Failed to load necessary drivers
 * Restoring Mixer Levels ...
 * No mixer config in /etc/asound.state, you have to unmute your card!

which is strange because alsa-drivers are compiled into kernel.

Have you started the alsasound service? What do you read from lspci? and
dmesg?
I think you forgot to compile some modules...

No, you may not goto the washroom. Last time you went to the washroom, we found you days later in an air vent.
