In case this can help anyone else, this is what I did to resolve the
problem...

Ran make menuconfig and deselected "Advanced Linux Sound Architecture"
and rebuilt the kernel.

Added this to /etc/make.conf:
ALSA_CARDS="intel8x0"

emerged alsa driver version 1.0.7-r3:
emerge -v =alsa-driver-1.0.7-r3

loaded the module:
modprobe snd-intel8x0 xbox=1

Ran alsamixer and un-mutted the output

Ran the following and heard sound:
aplay testing.wav

Hi,
This is off topic, but I know this community runs Linux on Xboxes.  I
have the mythfrontend working, but no sound.

I installed Gentoo on my Xbox following the instructions in Wiki
http://gentoo-wiki.com/Gentoo_for_Xbox .  I used
the kernel config provided with the 2.6.10 sources.

When I load the module:
modprobe  snd-intel8x0 xbox=1

I get theses errors:
Mar 11 14:52:42 xbox PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:00:06.0
to 64
Mar 11 14:52:42 xbox Intel ICH: probe of 0000:00:06.0 failed with error
-13

I also see this from time to time:
AC'97 0 does not respond - RESET

xbox root # aplay ~mythtv/testing.wav
aplay: main:508: audio open error: No such device
xbox root # cat /dev/snd/controlC0
cat: /dev/snd/controlC0: No such device

Can someone point me in the right direction to getting sound working?

Thanks,
Joe
