I can't help with your Windows problems. I have no idea how VMware
handles audio. In VMware Server 1.0.x, a WinXP guest shows no audio even
on a CentOS host with fully working audio for me. YMMV.
If you really can't wait for CetOS-5.3 then you have a couple options,
none supported by CentOS:
1. Grab the upstream 5.3 -128 kernel (which contains the alsa-drivers),
and alsa-libs and -utils SRPM packages, rebuild and test. This will give
you an indication if CentOS-5.3 will support your audio when released.
2. Grab the latest alsa-driver tarball from their website, compile and
install.
