    Last time I tried it, it found the card, and do whatever was needed
    behind the scenes for other things to be able to use sound, with no
    further configuring required. Afterwards, media players played audio
    files, and so on.

    If that didn't work for you, perhaps you have one of those annoying
    sound cards that don't work well with Linux. :-\
