I can't see the reason to eat up bandwidth with sound but...

try (command line as root)
redhat-config-soundcard
be careful that mixers in KDE (if that is what you are using) will tend
to default to 0 volume

if that fails to locate card - let us know what lspci -vv finds -
perhaps you can modprobe it if you know what you are looking for.

www.ltsp.org
Search box (top left), searched for 'sound'
first in list from search
<http://ltsp.sourceforge.net/ltsp_sound_docs.txt>
of course, you will need to get sound working on server first
