I now have sound. I'd recommend adding the ALSA documentation from 2.5.x to the patch. It is easier than trying to navigate through alsa-project.org for setup information. It would be nice if ALSA was placed into 2.4.x as soon as possible. Doesn't require any extra patches beyond the ones for the kernel. Thanks for the help! David
