depends on whether you use oss or alsa. I guess alsa is preferred
these days, sooner or later it will be included in kernel instead of
oss/free (AFAIK) and it's quite stable nowadays (close to 1.0 release).
download alsa modules (see alsa related packages) and go from there
(use lasaconf to configure it).
