When you open the
audio control panel and you don't see a wave out device,
a) check under the hardware tab if there is an audio device listed. If 
not, then no audio driver has been successfully installed
b) When you dont see any wave out device, then the audio driver has 
likely failed initialization. If you can provide debugging information, 
please add the debug data to bugzilla[1] and add the failed card to 
here[2]. An Howto to provide debugging information can be found here[3], 
[4]. A list of working cards can be found at [2].
