Look at the output from lspci. It will tell you what kind of sound
card/chip you have.
For example, on three different machines I have access to, lspci
prints this (along with lots of other stuff):
00:0b.0 Multimedia audio controller: Cirrus Logic CS 4610/11 [CrystalClear
SoundFusion Audio Accelerator] (rev 01)
00:08.0 Multimedia audio controller: Ensoniq CT5880 [AudioPCI] (rev 02)
00:08.1 Multimedia audio controller: Neomagic Corporation [MagicMedia 256AV Audio]
(rev 20)
(Random Rant: Why do they call it a "multimedia audio controller"?
Audio is a single medium, not multiple media. Jerks.)
That still doesn't tell you what driver to use.

If you have one distro where sound works (Hint: KNOPPIX (-: ) you can use
lsmod to see what drivers are installed. One of those is your sound
driver. You just have to figure out which one. (-:
