Had the same problem, so I switched to ALSA. I think the modules in OSS
is for a different card.
If you want to try ALSA you have to compile from sources, sinche the version
in potato does not support the VIA chipset. You need at least 0.5.7.
Last time I checked, ALSA modules for VIA had not support for MIDI yet
(it was planned, tough), so you may need to use software MIDI instead
(e.g. timidity).
