One of my computers uses the same sound modules (also RH7). Here's the relevant
sections of my modules.conf file:
alias sound-service-0-0 cs4232
alias sound-slot-0 cs4232
options sound dmabuf=1
alias midi opl3
options opl3 io=0x388
options cs4232 io=0x530 irq=5 dma=1 dma2=0 mpuio=0x220 mpuirq=5
You may need to pass some options to the sound modules (as I do), in order for it to
recognize which system resources to use (irq, dma, etc). You'll need to find out what
resources your sound card is using, since they may be different than on my system.
What happens if you try to modprobe the sound module (cs4232) after the boot-up
process is done?
On my computer, I had to move the the loading of the sound modules from
/etc/rc.sysinit to rc.local, since the sound modules refused to load any earlier
during the system start-up.
