The sound and soundcore modules are generic modules - you will need a
lower-level "driver" as well, but exactly which one depends on your
hardware.
What happens when you insert the sb module?

An ISA card then? Makes sense. You may need to modify the config file
for that to "activate" specific settings - but try the sb module first.

It shouldn't - hopefully automatic hardware detection will be better in
the next version of Debian; I suspect there are quite a few useable bits
from Knoppix coming in.
