What modules do you have pertaining to your sound card in conf.modules? 
Does soundconfig output any errors?  Are you seeing anything related in
/var/log/mesages?  Do you have a /dev/mixer?  Are you part of the audio
group?

I've had my 1371 work just fine on redhat systems... I think something
fundamental is missing.
