I'm on dialup so youtube videos are a no no for me. I'm basing my comments 
here on pre Fedora 8 installs. I had no problems with sound until Fedora 8, 
which included pulseaudio , and when I installed Fedora 8 I had no sound. 
Having seen various posts on the list I removed the package 
alsa-plugins-pulseaudio, and the sounds returned.

If you also have KDE installed, removing the alsa-plugins-pulseaudio package, 
will also remove the kde-settings-pulseaudio package.

As it is my Fedora 9 install with pulseaudio enabled, I do have sound, but as 
I've said I can't use youtube as I'm on dialup, and have seen problems with 
pulseaudio, and some audio apps, so have no idea if youtube would work for 
me, or not.

If you remove the alsa-plugins-pulseaudio package, your audio apps will use 
alsa directly without the pulseaudio soundserver entering the equation.

2¢ worth of perhaps useless info, but.
