Hey, My computer also has this- the card is made by Realtek, but the driver is snd_hda_intel. Forgive me for being redundant, but you DID reboot after 'Make install' right? If so, You may want to read through the output of dmesg and /var/log/messages to see if there's anything related to the sound card. If you're unsure, post them to the list and we'll have a look.
