I lost my sound in this F-23 computer a few days ago which causes some inconvenience.
PulseAudio volume control shows signal in Output but Configuration shows "No card available for configuration."
Any help appreciated,
Bob

I recently had problems with sound because pulseaudio was upgraded to a new version, and I had a personal configuration file in ~/.config/pulse/daemon.conf pointing to the old library directory.
It was pointing to an old library path, and overriding the new library path, with dl-search-path= Once I commented that line, everything started working. You could try that.
Failing that, there has been a recent thread about things to try when sound isn't working in this mailing list, called 'audio problems'. You could read that, and try those suggestions.

This was the closest thing I could find:
[bobg@Box10 ~]$ locate pulse/daemon.conf /etc/pulse/daemon.conf
[bobg@Box10 ~]$ cat /etc/pulse/daemon.conf # This file is part of PulseAudio.
it's a long file, I didn't see anything like the situation you described but, would I recognize a problem? Maybe not ...
Yes, I was trying some of the things in the 'audio problems' thread ...

That's the system file. It seems you don't have a personal configuration file, so my idea doesn't apply to you.
To be absolutely sure, do ls -an ~/.config/pulse If it's empty, you don't have it.
But given that you were missing one of the libraries that pulse expected to find, you should consider doing a reinstall of pulseaudio to see if it will pick up that missing library.
dnf reinstall pulseaudio
If it's still not there, this seems to be a packaging error, and you should open a bugzilla against pulseaudio. What happens if you run the locate command on libalsa-util.so?

There's your answer. Somehow that file got deleted. "dnf reinstall pulseaudio" and you should be fine. --

Good, "dnf reinstall pulseaudio" fixed the problem. I had to reboot for it to be effective.
I can't imagine what I might have done to break that. I dnf removed and reinstalled Balsa a few times, other than that perhaps something that happened with a dnf upgrade?
Thunderbird filters my messages and I have recorded announcements that tell me who sent a message so I can hear who it is and judge if it needs an immediate response when I am not here at the computer. Works well for me ...
I will add this to my notes.
Thanks much,
Bob
