another point to do with the sound test, is that when you press the

I thought the volume control on the test panel allowed you to overcome
that? I have to admit that I haven't had it come up in a muted mode, to
start with, to have to deal with that situation, and know whether that
would work.
The problem you can run into is that the volume control in the test
panel is only controlling one volume setting. You may need to adjust
more then one control before you can hear anything. This is
especially true with the Intel HDA chipset, because if the driver is
using the wrong model, you may be adjusting the wrong control.
(There are different "models" using the exact same chipset, but
connecting things to different pins.)

There no drop-down lists to try out other options in test sound step (FC7
installation process).
I have run alsamixer, kmixer and "fc7 gnome mixer" (sorry i forget the name
for this default fc7 mixer).
There is nothing wrong with alsamixer, kmixer and "fc7 gnome mixer"
I also have run "soundcard detection" but still could not make the sound
works.
Here is the content of modeprobe.conf ( I don't know whether this file has
to do with my sound problem):
alias eth0 tg3
alias scsi_hostadapter ata_piix
alias scsi_hostadapter1 ahci
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-card-0 index=0
options snd-hda-intel index=0
