I don't know how to check these things. I also don't know how to find out
what sound card I have. I executed dmesg and didn't see anything about sound
cards. I also looked in /var/log/messages and found lots of occurrences
of lines such as these:
Feb 23 08:46:01 localhost modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module sound-slot-0
Feb 23 08:46:01 localhost modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module sound-service-0-0

I have no idea whether they are actually relevant, except for contaning the
word sound.

Have you tried lspci? You might also try Googling "linux sound" and the
name of your laptop.
