sound modules usually start with snd- You have none. Look in /etc/modules.conf, /etc/modules.d/* -- especially the ones that start with snd- -- for the sound modules and try reloading them (eg modprobe snd-hda-intel to load the intel driver-- I am not saying that is the right one for you, it is just and example) plus various others.
