This is fixed in the test kernel (kernel-2.6.21-1.3255) on my Dell D820. With the new one, the ALSA system works and media players go out of the box. With earlier kenels, ALSA did not work, but the other sound system, OSS, did work, and programs that allow user to choose sould system could be made to work. system-config-sound will tell you what you need to know.

ps: on the D820, the kernel boot line hpet=disable is needed. Otherwise it does not start. That's a known bug, AFAIK

I also have a no sound problem under F 7 with intel-hda-audio (Gigabyte DS3 rev 3.3 MB integrated audio) which seems to have started happening after an update a few days ago, but not until I did a cold boot.
I get this error:
"Sound server informational message: Error while initializing the sound driver: device: default can't be opened for playback (No such file or directory) The sound server will continue, using the null output device."

The first time this happened yesterday a warm reboot fixed it. I'm not sure how to diagnose whether this is a hardware problem, or a Linux problem...
