AD1988B Sound Card Not Detected

[buffettfan]

Hello,

This seems to be a common issue but whenever I login, the first thing I see is an error message telling me that there was a sound issue and Sabayon is reverting to the null output device. I have checked the forums thouroughly, and I have found similar errors but none of the fixes seem to work (alasconf and the HOW-TO for HDA-Intel audio both failed). My audio card is onboard with an ASUS M2N32-SLI Deluxe wireless motherboard. It runs on the AD1988B codec, and here is the output when I run lspci:

P.S. Half of the programs that I run start to load but never finish, any ideas?
