Have you went through Mandrake Control Center, clicked oh hardware the see if the soundcard is listed there?  You may want to try different drivers too.

I never got sound to work right under 9.2.  I went back to 9.1 because most everything that worked fine in 9.1 didn't work at all in 9.2.

I know that the kernel sources are not included in the install of 9.2.  That may have a lot to do with this stuff not working.

Like that name by the way.  I have been a few rounds with Linux and that 9.2 is really buggy.  It looks nice but it still needs some work.  I can't believe that was supposed to be the final version.  Mandrake 9.1 with the bug fixes would have been a lot better.

It may help if you get the kernel sources.  I have a slow dial-up and just got tired of messing with it.
