can you send the dmesg output from when you load these modules?
insmod soundcore
insmod ac97_codec
insmod cs46xx

also, check the perms on /dev/dsp

and, the most basic test I know of for a sound card is the following as root:
cat /vmlinuz (or some big file) > /dev/dsp

also, try a mixer app as root as well.

if it works loading the stuff manually, add or modify these entries into 
/etc/modules.conf
alias sound-slot-0 cs46xx
pre-install cs46xx modprobe -k ac97_codec

This is based off some info I found on google groups and I believe it all 
applies to the kernel drivers only, not Alsa.  If you're using Alsa, check 
the howtos to manually configure your card.  The alsa configuration utilities 
have never worked right for me.
