?? ALSA is included in FC2, so you should have alsa-lib and alsa-utils at
least.

The alsactl lines are missing:
install snd-intel8x0 /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-intel8x0 && /usr/sbin/a
lsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
remove snd-intel8x0 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; /sbin/mo
dprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-intel8x0

ALSA starts with various audio channels set to volume zero and "mute".
system-config-soundcard pushes up the volume level for the test sound.
And the user should run alsamixer, un-mute the channels, and the
shutdown/reboot process would save the mixer settings. modprobe.conf would
restore them at boot time upon loading the kernel drivers.
