No Audio- Ubuntu 7.04 NVidia ALC861VD

[Ziv Kohav]

Hi. I've got no audio. New installation, checked several speakers and headphones. When clicking on the volume icon it says "no volume control GStreamer plugins and/or no devices found. Here are some outputs that I saw people asked for in similar posts:
