I find I only add the device pcm line to my kernel and everything works fine.  
Gnome, KDE, console beeps.  Everything works and I don't usually worry about 
the sound servers.  When you install one of the window managers, as long as 
you install the multimedia package, the correct sound server gets installed 
too.  This has been working for me for about 5 years now.
