Bill,
Thanks for the suggestions. I did look and search through the /lib/modules directory and their was nothing with snd-... at all The distribution is RedHat 3 Enterprise.
Thanks!

I find it very very hard to believe that alsa support is not built into
your kernel. I doubt very much that any distro would disable alsa
Look for any snd- entries in /lib/modules
find /lib/modules -name snd-\*
The look to see if you have snd-dummy
find /lib/modules -name snd-dummy\*
The kernel setup does NOT control the details of alsa. If alsa is enabled
then all of the modules are compiled and installed. The only way snd-dummy
would not be there is if they went into alsa itself and disabled it.
(What distro are you using?)
