the way i did it was by installing the following packages
alsa-base
alsa-utils
(i am not sure which one did the job). during configuration of the
package it asks me what my sound card is, (and then presumably sets up
the correct module(s) in /etc/modutils)
anyhow it seems very clean and straight-forward. i recommend it. :)
