You've got a lot of different things going on that are unrelated.
This message is innocuous; I'm not sure why it hasn't been fixed but
you can find info about it in the archives.
For sound, have you looked at the isapnp package?
I don't envy you the position you're in. I went through the
potato transition long enough ago (I'm woody now) that I don't
remember most of the details. dejanews archives the deb-user and
deb-devel mailing lists as they are gated to newsgroups. Have
you tried that?
