I dont't use Suse, but would you post the following info please, after rebooting, and before running alsaconf. cat /proc/asound/cards /sbin/lsmod | grep snd Do you have anything plugged into the USB, webcam with mike, usb midi keyboard, etc. These often cause problems resulting in the soundcard not working, as the USB devices are being set as card0, rather than the actual soundcard. You could also download the alsa-info.sh script from: http://hg.alsa-project.org/alsa/raw-file/tip/alsa-info.sh Make it executable, then run it before you run alsaconf, and paste the pastebin link into your reply, marking it "with no sound", or something like that. Then run alsaconf, and run the script again, this time marking the pastebin link as "sound working". This script will provide a lot of info about sound on your machine. All the best.
