You mean you have the same output from lspci that Ed got?

Do:

$ lsmod | grep snd

See if the snd_hda_intel module is loaded.

If it isn't, do:

$ modprobe snd_hda_intel

Not sure if you need to be root for that, if so, then:
$ sudo modprobe snd_hda_intel
or just do it as root.

Odd, IMHO, that it doesn't auto-load at boot, but then I don't run
Fedora, so what do I know?
