When you go in into the kernel config, there is the option for Intel
AC97-like sound, which I believe is what the majority of sound cards
use.  For AC97 there are "codecs" in the kernel config.  A safe choice
is to select them all.

The output you gave is not very helpful or informative, but I'll ask
just a few questions/suggestions:

      * Looks like maybe you have 2 sound cards. Are you going through
        the correct card for output?
      * Did you go into alsamixer to verify that the appropriate outputs
        are unmuted?
      * Try "aplay" or "speaker-test" or something else low-level to see
        if even basic output is working.  It could be your sound card is
        fine but you don't have the correct support for whatever music
        player you are using.
