It looks to me like you may need more entries
in your /etc/conf.modules file. Please compare
with the file on my website
http://jhunix.hcf.jhu.edu/~thood/tp600lnx.htm .
I think you want to be loading snd-card-cs4236,
not snd-card-cs4232.
Here are the sound modules that I have loaded
(partial output of lsmod):
--------------------------------------------------
snd-mixer-oss 3580 1 (autoclean)
snd-pcm1-oss 12588 0 (autoclean)
snd-card-cs4236 3856 1
snd-mpu401-uart 1528 0 [snd-card-cs4236]
snd-midi 12012 0 [snd-card-cs4236 snd-mpu401-uart]
snd-seq-device 3068 1 [snd-card-cs4236]
snd-opl3 1732 0 [snd-card-cs4236]
snd-hwdep 2284 0 [snd-card-cs4236 snd-opl3]
snd-cs4236 18512 0 [snd-card-cs4236]
snd-cs4231 16268 0 [snd-card-cs4236 snd-cs4236]
snd-mixer 25600 0 [snd-mixer-oss snd-card-cs4236
snd-cs4236 snd-cs4231]
snd-pcm1 16892 0 [snd-pcm1-oss snd-cs4236 snd-cs4231]
snd-timer 7388 0 [snd-opl3 snd-cs4231 snd-pcm1]
snd-pcm 8428 0 [snd-pcm1-oss snd-card-cs4236
snd-cs4236 snd-cs4231 snd-pcm1]
snd 33484 1 [snd-mixer-oss snd-pcm1-oss
snd-card-cs4236 snd-mpu401-uart snd-midi snd-seq-device snd-opl3
snd-hwdep snd-cs4231 snd-mixer snd-pcm1 snd-timer snd-pcm]
soundcore 2372 4
[snd]
-----------------------------------------
Try swapping the DMA channel assignments in your
/etc/conf.modules.
Try removing your network card.
Try using IRQ5 instead of IRQ9. This means using
PS2.EXE to change the IRQ and editing your /conf.modules
so that snd_irq=5 .
Open a mixer and crank the PCM and Volume levels
up to near maximum.
