I had (motherboard died, now) a mobo with the same audio controller, and the alsa packages worked fine for me. Unless you're rolling your own kernel, just grab the alsa-base package and the alsa-modules package that corresponds to the currently installed kernel. debconf even lets you select and setup the card, which makes it almost a no-brainer.
