Can you emerge lspci and post your output, or give us some details on your board?? I have an nforce2 and it works with those options, although mine loads the snd_intel8x0 driver.
Also, have got ALSA support built into your kernel??
Are you using a manually built kernel, or a genkernel??
Do you have the /etc/init.d/alsasound script running upon boot?? |

This is details about my sound that lspci -v displays:
| Code: |
00:06.0 Multimedia audio controller: Nvidia Corporation nForce3 250 Gb AC'97 audio controller (rev a1)
Subsystem: ASRock Incorporation Unknown device 0850
Flags: bus master, 66 MHz,fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ18
I/O ports at e800 [size=256]
I/O ports at e480 [size=128]
Memoty at ff6fb000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
Capabilities: [44] Power Management version 2

Kernel Options for ALSA:

I'm manually built kernel.

That is likely the problem then. you'll have to manually run /etc/init.d/alsasound manually before you can get sound. It'll make certain everything for the kernel is loaded, and then start the ALSA engine and restore your previous sound card settings.
Once the ALSA engine is started for the first time, all channels are muted so you don't blow your speakers or ear drums. Run alsamixer to unmute them (man alsamixer for help). |

Then you need to emerge alsa-utils, which will also provide alsamixer.
