Beyond realising this was probably due to something like the correct modules, etc, not being in place, the details have gone above my own (current) level. However there is one other (non-ALSA) point I think it may be useful to add. My impression that that at some earlier stage audio *was* working, so the current lack of working is due to something like an attempt to do something like 'upgrade' the kernel. If so, my recommendation is to *always* do a backup of your system before doing anything that might furtle things up. I use 'clonezilla' for this every now and then to try to protect myself from my own idiocy. Put the backup on a removable USB HD. But there are various other ways you may prefer.
