Chris,
I have the sb module, AWE-WAVE module and opl3 modules
loaded.  loading the above also loaded the
soundcore(?) and Oss sound drivers(?).  I can cat a
.wav file
and get it to play (cat *.wav>/dev/audio) but, the 
cd player and mixer in Gnome won't make a noise.
Gnome is using esd which I believe is esound. Any
other
necessities needed?  

The way debian gens a modules.conf, I'm not sure it is
100% correct for the options, etc.

I am guessing it is ok since on boot up it says 
"Soundblaster found ok" and "AWE found ok" and "opl13 
found ok" and cat /dev/sndstat shows the devices.
