I see two possible matches in pci.ids, device IDs 03e4 and 03f0. You can
check which one you have by using "-nn" with the lspci command:

lspci -nn | grep -i audio

You should see either [10de:03e4] or [10de:03f0]. (10de is the vendor ID
of nvidia.)

As far as I can tell, support for both these chipsets was added after
the 2.6.18 kernel was released, so you will need a newer kernel. Version
2.6.24 is available for Etch from backports.org; your sound should work
"out of the box" with this newer kernel. You can find details about
installing backports here:
