A big thanks for your help! It may be that I had not used modprobe snd-intel8x0, or perhaps it was using 2.4.22pre6 kernel. Either way, it works!
For Rajesh:
* I've compiled 2.4.22pre6 kernal more or less using redhat's '.config' file with the 8.0 distribution.
* I installed the alsa drivers from: ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/driver/alsa-driver-0.9.5.tar.bz2 (I just built all the cards, but selecting intel8x0 alone I suppose would be sufficent).
* modprobe snd-intel8x0
* turn up volume levels
* play /usr/share/redhat-config-soundcard/redhat-sample.wav -- works great!

Hello,
I am running RHL 8.0 on a desk-note computer that has similar audio problems to those mentioned
in Rajesh Menon's post (https://www.redhat.com/archives/sound-list/2003-April/msg00009.html.) I
didn't see any resolution to the problem posted in the relevant threads, so I'd like to ask for
help.
The Red Hat kernel has a bug when driving codecs that have no volume control. It may be that. If so then 2.4.22pre fixed it
