I fixed my ALSA problem. I booted off the 2005.0 LiveCD and rebuilt my kernel with genkernel (based off the LiveCD's config), then rebooted with the new kernel and emerged alsa-driver. alsamixer worked fine and I got my card unmuted. A funny thing about it is that although sound was playing I couldn't hear it through my speakers until I unplugged the speakers from the back of the computer and plugged them back into the headphone jack in the front.
