Sound also failed for me when I upgraded my virtual machine from F10.
It also failed on a new virtual machine install of F11.  Status for
sound is as follows:

VM upgrade of F10 to F11:

    Removed PA.
    Unable to remove Alsa because of dependency hell.  (Most
everything is tied to it.)
    Download and installed Open Sound System driver rpm:
http://www.4front-tech.com/download.cgi

    Got sound and a mixer but no master volume control for Gnome taskbar.

VM F11 install:

      No sound device. PA Manager/Device Chooser and find device or
defaults to null.
      Removed PA
      Enabled OSS sound support in /etc/modprobe.d/dist-oss.conf

      After restart: Sound card detected. Alsa mixer works.  No master
volume control for Gnome.


I also have virtual machine instances of openSUSE 11.1 and Ubuntu 9.04
installed on the same machine. Sound works in both.  As far as I am
aware both distros use Pulse Audio. So, where or how did Fedora
developers get off track and derail sound?
