I've tried going through the hardware set-up wizard but it doesn't find any sound chipsets. Can anyone point me in the right direction please?

After doing a little Googleing, I couldn't find anything positive in the way of your sound working with Linux. I did see one post over at LinuxQuestions.org where someone named 2Gnu seemed to report he didn't have any luck either.
 
Sorry I couldn't help more..
