Something I have noticed that is annoying about F8, if I have my
usb camera plugged in, it's audio gets loaded before my MB's audio, and this
results in X finding the camera audio (microphone) and not seeing
the other audio at all, the easiest way I have found to work around
it (I messed around with modprobe.conf but I don't believe I every quite
got the correct combination), is to rmmod'ed the module for the camera
audio device, you may want to check and rmmod the audio module(s) for the
video board and any other non-mb devices and then start X, and see if it then 
works, if it does you need to figure out a better fix.
