Did you just update the kernel or alsa? If not and this is a fresh installation, you need to add yourself to the audio group. Try this;
Go to a console, as root user. Type in;
adduser USER_NAME audio
So, to add myself to the group audio, I would do;
adduser danleff audio
Log off and back on again and see if this worked.

Take a look at the sound faq on the Debian wiki. This may help.
Remember, if you updated the kernel, you must reinstall alsa, which I assume you are using. Which version of Debian are you using? Sarge...?
