The Ensoniq ES1370 chip is used in the SB PCI128 (I have one myself). I
got sound working using alsa as opposed to the OSS kernel drivers, you might
want to check that out (deb packages are alsa-source, alsalib and alsa-utils
I believe, find more info at http://alsa.jcu.cz).

As someone else mentioned, you want to pick an Ensoniq AudioPCI or ES1370
module as opposed to generic SoundBlaster.
