I have the same card, but I compiled the ES1371-driver not as module. IIRC you have to define aliases for the sound driver in /etc/conf.modules if you want to use it as module.

Here, with the driver compiled directly into the kernel it works fine with no other configuration at all, except for that the card does not support midi.
