Well this package needs to be linked against the kernel headers....

are you sure /usr/src/linux is linked to where the actually kernel sources are...

ussually it will be something like this

/usr/src/linux -> /usr/src/gentoo-sources-r5

you can check using 'ls -l'

You might also want to choose a better title for your topic...

Clearly there is nothing wrong with your soundcard...

'nforce-audio won't emerge' would have been a better title...
