Freshly installed system running Gentoo AMD64. System was previously a
Windows box, and sound worked without issue prior to the reformat. No
motherboard jumpers etc. changed. Asus K8V Deluxe motherboard with Via
VT837 integrated audio. I have Alsa and the Via driver compiled into the
kernel.

localhost ddjones # cat /proc/asound/cards
0 [V8237 ]: VIA8237 - VIA 8237
VIA 8237 with AD1980 at 0xc800, irq 22
I get no sound from the system at all. No system sounds, nothing from any
media player, just silence.
alsaconf says that there is no supported PnP or PCI card found. AlsaMixer
shows the VIA 8237 card. Everything is turned up - nothing muted. KDE
Control Center says that it can't start the sound system.
Everything seems to be in place and detected. I have no idea where to go from
here. Hints and suggestions greatly appreciated.
