I have the system installed, following the manual.

And everything goes well, except my sound card seems not work.

Here is my sound card info :
Code:

 Audio device: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio (rev 05)
        Subsystem: Acer Incorporated [ALI] Device 0559
        Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel
        Kernel modules: snd-hda-intel

Sorry, I search in menuconfig but not found this line, nor anything about HD-audio aslike...
My gentoo version is 3.2.12.. Does it matters?

Code:

lsmod | grep -i snd                                                           /usr/src/linux-3.2.12-gentoo

Do you mean you can't find this:

Code:

I could find this . And under Intel HD Audio , I found many options checked. But it does not help

On my current system, I have the sound drivers (also Intel HD) built in - perhaps you should try that.

I think I also have the sound driver built in :
Code:

Audio device: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio (rev 05)
        Subsystem: Acer Incorporated [ALI] Device 0559
        Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel
        Kernel modules: snd-hda-intel


When I open my video player, it play no sound and no images, gives this:
Code:

The audio playback device HDA Intel (ALC269VB Analog) does not work.
Falling back to default.

No, that output says it's a module, but it still works.
So, lets try some tests with the card.
'aplay -v < /dev/urandom' should produce some output and white noise.
amixer should show you the volume set on the device.

Code:
'aplay -v < /dev/urandom'
produces no sound.

Most of that output says you've got a few tools missing.
emerge media-sound/alsa-utils and check with alsamixer if some of the outputs aren't muted as some of that output suggests so.

According to that both your headphone and speaker controls are set to 0% and muted.

Code:
!!Modprobe options (Sound related)

snd-hda-intel: model=acer-aspire position_fix=1
snd-hda-intel: model=acer-aspire position_fix=1
snd-hda-intel: model=auto

Should only be 1 entry, not 3.
