Of course you do-- it's the device driver for the sound card.
Just because it's in the kernel, and doesn't need to be installed
separately doesn't mean you don't need it.
What exactly have you enabled in Device Drivers=>Sound in the kernel?
Have you enabled ALSA (default is enabled)? Have you enabled a driver
for your sound card (either as a module, or directly compiled in)?
If as a module, have you loaded that module via
/etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6?
Have you edited /etc/modules.conf to reflect your sound card and then
run update-modules as that file suggests?
If so to all that, have you emerged alsa-utils, run alsamixer, unmuted
your mixers, and added the alsasound script to your boot or default
runlevel using rc-update?
If yes to all that, what exactly is the problem that remains (because
any problem that remains is an application configuration problem and not
a general sound problem).
Hope this helps.
