Thanks again for your help.

Yes, it is there!

(Is snd-ice1712 specific to the M-audio card?)

0 [M2496 ]: ICE1712 - M Audio Audiophile 24/96
                     M Audio Audiophile 24/96 at 0x9c00, irq 5

  0: [0- 0]: ctl
  8: [0- 0]: raw midi
 16: [0- 0]: digital audio playback
 24: [0- 0]: digital audio capture
 33: : timer

Looks like it is there in one way or another. I don't why it didn't show
in the pci bus.

Hmm, maybe I will try reinstalling FC3 and see if alsamixer works then.
