The examples in the man page are incorrect. After some experimentation, here is the command to run:
amixer -c 0 cset numid=33 value=false
Same request. If it sets it, try sound. If it doesn't, report error.
I don't think you do, but you might have to log in and out of X to pick up the change.
If there is still no sound after the change, we'll start looking at pulseaudio settings and configuration.

Hi it still does not work. this time the command did give any errors
Wow, you are a hard case. I think they should pay me extra. :-)
How are you testing whether sound works? I think you said at one point, but I've forgotten. You should be using something really low level like aplay -D plughw:0,0 some.wav
I notice from the IEC958 setting below that the change didn't stick, but was reset back on reboot.
Lets approach this from another direction. Install the following packages for pulseaudio if they aren't already installed on your system.
yum install padevchooser pavumeter pavucontrol
Once they are installed, go into the menu to Applications->Sound & Video->PulseAudio Volume Control. This comes from the pavucontrol package.
After it is open, first open the "Output Devices" tab. You should see your card there. If you do, then open the Configuration tab. You should have one entry there. Click on the down arrow at the right of the dropdown and select "Output Analog Stereo + Input Analog Stereo". Close everything.
You should now have sound. Write back with any issues. I'm getting down to the bottom of my bag of tricks, so might not be able to offer much more help if this doesn't work.
