My system has a soundmax using the intel AC-97 chipset. I had some troubles getting this card working on Fedora 2 and 3, but here is how I resolved it. In /etc/modprobe.conf I had it load the snd-intel8x0 alsa module. In /etc/hotplug/blacklist I added snd-intel8x0 to the list of drivers to not hotplug. Finally, I saved my changes, rebooted, and then turned up the volume in the Gnome volume control and it worked. Maybe this will help you as well.
