On a clean install I did last week I discovered enlightenment had no sound, this was due to the missing pulseaudio-module-x11.
There are two classic reasons for "no sound":
[2.] - the hardware enumerates such that some digital output (HDMI, SPDIF) gets to become the first and default output over Analog, which gets you sound, but not at the jack you probably expected it to come out of.
So please check whether this is the case - possibly with interactive help (e.g. IRC) if needed
Just open up `alsamixer` with no arguments, which shows (the tuning knobs of) the device configured to be "default".
For enlightenment i'm much happier with pulse as the sound server as it has proper integration with e's mixer but yes opening alsa mixer shows that the hdmi interface is setup as the default and I probably could mess with it to get it working without pulse but pulse will do for now for the reasons mentioned above.
Do you have alsa-plugins-pulse package on your system? With this installed, and when $PULSEAUDIO_ENABLE="yes" in /etc/sysconfig/sound, alsa-lib will take pulse plugin as the default, too. So you'll see only one volume bar when running "alsamixer" without any argument. For adjusting /etc/sysconfig/sound, just run setup-pulseaudio --enable once. Then it'll set up the various sound backends to use PA as default.
