I found this link, there they use the same modules, well, no card name is
mentioned:
http://chaosengine.net/p5020d#Sound
and thought give it a try, but no luck.

I am using SuSE 9.3.
just did the following again:
- removed all sound and audio related modules
- ran alsaconf from the 1.0.11rc2 version
- it detected the SIS soundcard, and told me it will
modify /etc/modprobe.d/sound and /etc/modprobe.conf, so I said OK
- then it told me:
Loading driver...
Shutting down sound driver done
Starting sound driver: intel8x0 done
Setting default volumes...
- then alsaconf told me to lower my volumes or say no (:
- I pressed Yes, then I recognized that alsaconf shows me the following
error messages:
ALSA lib confmisc.c:672:(snd_func_card_driver) cannot find card '0'
ALSA lib conf.c:3492:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_card_driver
returned error: No such device
ALSA lib confmisc.c:392:(snd_func_concat) error evaluating strings
ALSA lib conf.c:3492:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_concat returned
error: No such device
ALSA lib confmisc.c:1072:(snd_func_refer) error evaluating name
ALSA lib conf.c:3492:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_refer returned
error: No such device
ALSA lib conf.c:3961:(snd_config_expand) Evaluate error: No such device
ALSA lib pcm.c:2099:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM default
aplay: main:547: audio open error: No such device
Saving the mixer setup used for this in /etc/asound.state.
/usr/sbin/alsactl: save_state:1163: No soundcards found...
and in the end:
===============================================================================
Now ALSA is ready to use.
For adjustment of volumes, use your favorite mixer.
Have a lot of fun!
but there is no /etc/asound.state
this is the /etc/modprobe.d/sound
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
alias sound-slot-0 snd-intel8x0
and the related devices:

but the problem still persists

write(2, "alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open"..., 68alsamixer: function
snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
also running the snddevices script after running alsaconf does not help.
so still need help to get the sound working.
