The sound is on the Intel motherboard (chipset ICH7).

As you suggested, I put in the alsa-base 1.0.14-rc1 from Debian experimental and alsa-lib and alsa-driver 1.0.14rc2 from source. I made deb files of these but couldn't install them that way because of conflicts. It didn't work with just alsa-lib. I had to install alsa-driver and run alsaconf. I'm a little worried what sort of mess I'll have when it comes time to upgrade any of the debian packages involved. dpkg still shows libasound2 1.0.13-1 installed, but many of those files were overwritten by the install of alsa-lib from source. alsa-driver replaced files from the package linux-image-2.6.18-3-686 and a couple of others. I did save archives of the original files but don't know if that will be enough. Anyway, I do have sound now.
