Everything you listed looked fine to me.  Please try alsamixer and make 
sure that both main and pcm are unmuted and above level zero.  Use aplay 
to test.  ALSA inits to muted, so you really do need to mess with the 
mixer to get some reasonable levels.  Then you can use alsactl store to 
save those levels, and alsactl restore in an init script so that levels 
are reasonable after reboot.  This might already be done for you, I 
don't know any details of Fedora's init scripts.
