I don't use grub myself but doobit means edit the file /boot/grub/menu.lst.

insert the word 'alsa' on the line where you see other
dsl options.

Here with more detail that Doobit and Humpty say to you.

You must open menu.lst file with your favorite text editor (for example: Beaver). Edit it and save changes.
Note: Root Permission is required to save changes in menu.lst file

Not problem, follow this procedure:

1) Launch Beaver with root permission so: Open Xterminal and write this two commands:

sudo su

beaver

2) Go to menu of Beaver and do File -> Open (click to File and next click to Open).
Browser to /boot/grub/ directory and look menu.lst file. Select it and do click OK.

3) Now you can read the menu.lst file and will see some lines like this:

kernel /boot/linux24 root=/dev/hda2 quiet vga=normal noacpi noapm nodma noscsi frugal

You must insert "alsa" in each line so:

kernel /boot/linux24 root=/dev/hda2 quiet vga=normal noacpi noapm nodma noscsi frugal alsa

4) Save you changes (File -> Save)

5) Finish, reboot your computer.
