I have the exact same problem. The sound card appears in the device manager with no red X and it states that the device is working proerly. but... No volume control on the task bar and under Sounds and Multimedia in the Control Panel on the Audio and Voice tab it shows: "No Playback Devices". I tried removing all sound devices from Device manager and rebooting. It did indeed find the sound card and install it. Still same problem. I found an updated driver and tried installing that a few days ago. No success. In the Win.ini file under sounds(after the equals sign) it is blank. Does that matter?
