Thanks for the formatting hint.
To answer the critical question first. This is not a dual boot with Windows machine. It is dual boot, mainly Debian, right now also Slackware, and previously Debian and Fedora.
Three sound based firmware packages are installed but never noticed in the dmesg records. Is that important, and how do I load those packages (at boot maybe?)
Here is the output from luser me. Had to use sudo on the dmesg commands. Also had to add me to the adm group. There are some differences.
The lsmod command shows one extra module, I will assume I missed it last time.
The alsamixer command brought up the graphical display rather than a bunch of error messages.
There is actual output for the pacmd listings
