I had to mount /dev because I use udev and my /dev directory in chroot was almost empty, and had no sound information (/dev/dsp, /dev/snd, /dev/mixer, etc). That is the only way sound worked on my system. If you are using devfs or udev, the /dev directory needs to mounted. I suspect this needs to be changed in the howto.
