It simply came down to running alsamixer -c0, unmuting all the
outputs, including surround sound, and saving the results with
sudo alsactl store 0.  Now my son's speakers work!

Next is to get the video working with the non-proprietary drivers.  It
seems that the problem, according to David Arlie, is the monitor, not
the video card.  I don't know what to do about this.
