This is going to sound stupid, but, is the volume turned on? I've heard it
before where peole didn't here anything because their mixer was set to
"mute".

Re: YDL 3.0.1 and sound on B&W
So you have soundserver startup enabled under X ?

Yes, volume is on.

Yes, soundserver startup is enabled. This seems to be more fundametnal
than that; when I use the soundcard detection app in system settings, it
brings up redhat-config-souncard, which syas that it found DMASOUND. It
then asks if I've heard the test sound, which I haven't, and says
"automatic detection of the sounccard did not work. sound will not be
available." dmesg says:
PowerMac Burgundy DMA sound driver rev 016 installed
Core driver edition01.06: PowerMac Built-in Sound driver edition 00.07
Any more suggestions? Thanks.

If YDL ,in 2004, can't support the sound card built in to an
at-that-time five year old Mac, what's the point? I mean, they're
supposed to be a Mac-centric distro, no?
Not that it matters that much. For other reasons than just this, I've
given up on YDL.
