Upon reading your post, I thought there might be some conflict going as to which soundcard was set as card0, as you have both snd-hda-intel, and a TV card with a sound component. At least your lspci indicates it. My Hauppauge Win TV express card has snd-bt87x, which is one of those "abnormal" drivers that try to grab card0, and which need to have the following line set in /etc/modules.d/alsa-base (see below), otherwise you can get conflicts where both soundcards are trying to grab card0, and sometimes no cards appear in /proc/asound/cards, although lsmod shows the modules to be loaded options snd-bt87x index=2. I thought this may be the case with your problem, and a bit of googling shows aoptions cx88-alsa index=2 (all these dodgy drivers are indexed as 2), in someones /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base. It doesn't show in your options list on the pastebin file, but that may be because it doesn't start with "snd". Do you have that one there? I also read that someone had add snd-hda-intel to /etc/modules to get sound to work. Not sure if that was for Hardy Heron though. Did you roll your own server kernel?
