You might also want to visit www.suse.com and check the hardware DB. Check for updates in the download area. I seem to remember there being some ALSA updates. In defence of SuSE (I do it all the time...) it has pretty good hardware discovery as well. If this is on the motherboard sound then also look for entries on the motherboard in the HDB. Good Luck!
