Try the pre-compiled alsa binary modules, for example alsa-modules-2.2.17
if you use the pre-compiled kernel. Properly set the module alias as
follows:

add in /etc/modutils/alias:

alias char-major-116 snd
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias snd-card-0 snd-card-gusmax  /* change this corresponding to your card */
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss  
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss  
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss  
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss 

Then update /etc/modules.conf by running update-modules. Hopefully, you
snd card will work after rebooting (Q: is rebooting necessary here??).

Any further questions, let us know.
