Finally fixed my problem. Every time I launched a gnome application from
the terminal, I would always see something about esd not being found.
So, the little light bulb came on in my head and I installed the esound
package. After a quick reboot, magically the sounds works and I have my
PCM device

The cause of esd not being installed? Well, I actually installed Kubuntu
first to see if I would like the new KDE. I ended up liking Gnome more,
so I installed the ubuntu-desktop package. So for whatever reason,
esound is not in the list of dependencies for ubuntu-desktop.
