Sound not working in RHEL5

[noob15]

Volume controller is showing a red cross and saying

"Either that you don't have the right GStreamer plugins installed, or that you don't have a sound card configured. RHEL5"

I have tried many solutions posted in various forums like installing gstreamer-plugin-bad and gstreamer-plugin-ugly etc.

Heres the output of lspci

Try redhat support line or the Centos forum instead.
