More detail on what you are trying and how precisely it fails to work
would be appreciated.

What I did (IIRC - it was a while ago): 

1. configured my kernel with SB16 support as a module.
2. configured isapnp to set up my sound card
   a. install isaponptools
   b. use pnpdump to generate template /etc/iaapnp.conf
   c. edit /etc/isapnp.conf to avoid conflicts with other devices (the
      file is very well commmented)
3. reboot
4. run "modprobe sb irq=nnn io=0xnnn dma=0xnnn mpi_io=0xnnn" where the 
   settings match those chosen in step 2.  Also "modprobe opl3 io=0xnnn"
   for completeness.
5. if everything works, adjust /etc/modutils so that the modprobe
   options are permenant.  

HTH.
