I am by no means an expert in this but this is the way that I handled it
on my Sony Picturebook...

edit /etc/modules.conf and remove any and all references to sound
run the command 'depmod -ae'

run the command 'sndconfig'  (this may not be installed by default - if
not installed, use rpm to install it from the distro cd's or if you have
the machine on an rhn account... up2date sndconfig
