With alot of help and guidance from Lurch_, I stumbled upon a problem
with the alsa-driver /etc/modules.d/alsa configuration file.
I was getting the following output when ALSA loaded:
Starting sound driver: snd-via82xx Warning: ignoring snd_device_gid=29,
no such parameter in this module
Warning: ignoring snd_device_mode=0660, no such parameter in this module
Warning: ignoring snd_cards_limit=1, no such parameter in this module
Module snd loaded, with warnings
Module snd-seq-device loaded, with warnings
Module snd-rawmidi loaded, with warnings

Module snd-ac97-codec loaded, with warnings

Module snd-pcm loaded, with warnings
Module snd-via82xx loaded, with warnings
done
If you're seeing simular errors:
1. su to root
2. load /etc/modules.d/alsa into your favorite editor.
3. Find the line containing the following: (was the first line for me)
options snd snd_device_gid=29 snd_device_mode=0660 snd_cards_limit=1
4. Change line to read:
options snd device_mode=0660 cards_limit=1
5. Save the file
5. Type 'depmod -a' (without quotes) and press Enter
This has been corrected in the moonbase, but it will not replace
existing config files (and we wouldn't want to force a new config file
on everyone)
