I habe installed SuSE 9.2 and let detect the Sound Card via YAST.
It detected:

82801DB/DBL/DBM (ich4/ich4-l/ich4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller

I enabled the "[x] start sequencer" option.

The status is "running".

When I try to play a sound, it does not work in XMMS or many other sound
tools but in amarok its okay. Uses KDE it's own sound system?
I installed Skype and it does not play any sound and cannot use the
sound card. Maybe there is set a wrong sound device. How can determine
the sound device, that amarok uses?

Maybe you have any other ideas to make my sound working in all apps?

this is what lsmod says:
