What do you have for the sound devices:

$ ls -l /dev|grep audio
crw-rw---- 1 root   audio   14,  12 Sep  8 14:31 adsp
crw-rw---- 1 root   audio   14,   4 Sep  8 14:31 audio
crw-rw---- 1 root   audio   14,   3 Sep  8 14:31 dsp
crw-rw---- 1 root   audio   14,   0 Sep  8 14:31 mixer
crw-rw---- 1 root   audio   14,   1 Sep  8 14:31 sequencer
crw-rw---- 1 root   audio   14,   8 Sep  8 14:31 sequencer2

Add yourself to the the audio group.

Also, do you have sound configured in the kernel?

#
# Sound

CONFIG_SOUND=y

#
# Advanced Linux Sound Architecture

CONFIG_SND=y
CONFIG_SND_TIMER=y
CONFIG_SND_PCM=y
CONFIG_SND_SEQUENCER=y
# CONFIG_SND_SEQ_DUMMY is not set
CONFIG_SND_OSSEMUL=y
CONFIG_SND_MIXER_OSS=y

CONFIG_SND_PCM_OSS_PLUGINS=y
CONFIG_SND_SEQUENCER_OSS=y
CONFIG_SND_RTCTIMER=y

# CONFIG_SND_DYNAMIC_MINORS is not set
CONFIG_SND_SUPPORT_OLD_API=y
CONFIG_SND_VERBOSE_PROCFS=y
# CONFIG_SND_VERBOSE_PRINTK is not set
