After a week of trying to fix this problem I'm still wondering if anyone managed to get around or fix this sound problem? I have Intel 82801DB (ICH4) AC'97 audio controler, which doesn't work under 2.6.10-1.9_FC2.i686 kernel, but works under 2.6.5-1.358/kernel. I have checked the Alsa-mixer, made sure that mute is not checked and volume is all the way up. I've gotten some suggestions but unfortunately didn't help in my case.
