I would suggest booting DSL with the "nosound" and without the "alsa" boot options. Once booted, use "lsmod" to check that there are no OSS (eg AC97 or similar) or snd-xxx modules loaded. If there are any sound modules loaded, remove them with "rmmod -f module_name" (sometimes you have to use the command more than once) - do not remove the soundcore module.
Next load the alsa.dsl extension from the system section of the repository and use the right-click menu to initialise it. Check using "lsmod" to see if the alsa modules are loaded, you should see something like this.

You could also check in /proc/asound (or whatever it is).
If everything looks OK up to this point, I would suggest getting hold of alsamixer to see what comes up.
