Thanks for the response. Still working on the issue. Current status is
2.6.5 boots with all sound build as modules but upon boot 'lsmod' lists
no modules resident. If I login and do 'modprobe cs46xx' then I get back
the following.

linux:/etc # lsmod
Module                  Size  Used by
snd_seq                55952  1
snd_pcm_oss            48036  0
snd_mixer_oss          17280  1 snd_pcm_oss
snd_cs46xx             85640  5
snd_rawmidi            21664  1 snd_cs46xx
snd_seq_device          7560  2 snd_seq,snd_rawmidi
snd_ac97_codec         61316  1 snd_cs46xx
snd_pcm                88096  2 snd_pcm_oss,snd_cs46xx
snd_timer              22916  2 snd_seq,snd_pcm
snd                    47844  20
snd_seq,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_cs46xx,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_device,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm,snd_timer
loop                   13320  0
snd_page_alloc          9604  2 snd_cs46xx,snd_pcm
soundcore               8288  1 snd

Everything looks fine. I try to test with some interesting results

linux:/ # cat /opt/kde3/share/sounds/KDE_Logout.wav > /dev/dsp0
^C (have to break the session. no sound and just sits their)
linux:/ # cat /opt/kde3/share/sounds/KDE_Logout.wav > /dev/dsp1
-bash: /dev/dsp1: No such device
linux:/ # cat /opt/kde3/share/sounds/KDE_Logout.wav > /dev/dsp2
-bash: /dev/dsp2: No such device
linux:/ # cat /opt/kde3/share/sounds/KDE_Logout.wav > /dev/dsp3
-bash: /dev/dsp3: No such device
linux:/ # cat /opt/kde3/share/sounds/KDE_Logout.wav > /dev/dsp4

So I think things are looking like they are home and happy. 

Poked around in /proc

less pci <snip>
Bus  0, device   5, function  0:
    Multimedia audio controller: Cirrus Logic CS 4614/22/24
[CrystalClear SoundFusion Audio Accelerator] (rev 1).
      IRQ 11.
      Master Capable.  Latency=64.  Min Gnt=4.Max Lat=24.
      Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xf4122000 [0xf4122fff].
      Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xf4000000 [0xf40fffff]

I tried 'alsaconf' to see if that would point me in the right direction
and it says no PCI devices found. What is interesting is that after
exiting I do an 'lsmod' and get:

Module                  Size  Used by
loop                   13320  0
snd_page_alloc          9604  0
soundcore               8288  0

Besides this and LDAP with Exhange my Linux migration from XP to Linux
would have been rather smooth.

Running out of ideas. Suggestions greatly apreciated.

Thanks,

It did not work with the stock 2.4 kernel (and for varios reasons) I then loaded 2.6.4 from SuSE site which also did not work. I then build my own to fix some SMB and video issues with theirs and build a 2.6.5 kernel. It works fine for every thing, seems to find the sound card but it will not play audio.
