As noted in my comment on Bug 301261, after a reboot, running alsamixer -c 0, and looking at [Playback]:

  Master: 100 [db gain=0.00]
  Headphone: off
  PCM: 0<>0 [dB gain=-58.50, -58.50]
  Mic: 0<>0 [dB gain=-34.50, -34.50]
  Mic Boost: 0<>0
  IEC958: 100 [dB gain=0.00, 0.00]
  IEC958 Default PCM
  IEC958 Playpack Source [PCM]

I also find the headphone and speaker switches turned off.

After using the Volume Control to change the PCM level to 100 (which I see reflected in alsamixer) and to turn on the speaker switch, I get sound, as verified by playing a movie through totem and with VMware (using oss-compat to provide /dev/dsp).
