I have no sound.

When I boot knoppix it uses via82cxxx_audio and works.  I have that
module installed so I added the line to my "via82cxxx_audio" to my
/etc/modules.  Still no sound.
What do I check next?
     

Check if you are in the audio group, and if the channels are unmuted.
   

How do I do those?  It also doesn't work as root.  And, another bit of
information.  When I try system sounds there is nothing.  When I try
xmms it hangs (xmms, not the system).
 

In a terminal logged in as yourself, type "groups" to see what groups 
you're in.

What kernel are you using ("uname -a")?
What modules do you have loaded ("lsmod")?
What's the output of "lspci" in regard to your sound card?
Use a mixer program (kmix, amix, aumix, GnomeMixer, etc) to make sure 
your volume is not muted/too low.
Configure xmms to use the proper output in preferences (OSS, esound, 
alsa, etc).
