Alsaconf doesnt find any sound devices, however modules (in particular
snd_via82xx) are loaded;

If i try to run /etc/init.d/alsasound
 
localhost linux # /etc/init.d/alsasound start
 * Loading ALSA modules ...

alsa-driver is not recommended so i'm avoiding it. Is that my only
option to try to fix this?
 
tnx
