in 2.1.59 sound worked just fine
(MV Pro Sonic 16, MV Jazz chipset)

in 2.1.60 the bootup message is the same
Oct 27 09:22:21 wormhole kernel: Sound initialization started
Oct 27 09:22:21 wormhole kernel: <Jazz16 (3.1)> at 0x220 irq 5 dma 1,5
Oct 27 09:22:21 wormhole kernel: <Yamaha OPL3 FM> at 0x388
Oct 27 09:22:21 wormhole kernel: Sound initialization complete

but the sound doesn't work. 'cat /dev/sndstat' returns invalid
argument, and trying to can a .au file to /dev/audio also returns
invalid argument.

"On two occasions I have been asked [by members of Parliament!], `Pray,
Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right
answers come out?' I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of
confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question."
-- Charles Babbage
