sound doesn't work in 2.1.106

I'm new to the development kernels, so I may not be doing this right. I'm
trying to get may sound card (SB16) to work under 2.1.106. Currently,
some sounds work, and some don't. "cat sound.au > /dev/dsp" works, but
programs like x11amp and mpg123 complain about "Sound: DMA (output) timed
out - IRQ/DRQ config error?" Here is what I've done:

I had to compile the sound drivers as modules in order to make the system
fit. Then, to install the modules, I ran:

insmod soundcore
insmod sound
insmod uart401
insmod sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 dma16=5 mpu_io=0x330
insmod opl3 io=0x388

# cat /dev/sndstat
OSS/Free:3.8s2++-971130
Load type: Driver loaded as a module
Kernel: Linux serv1 2.1.106 #1 SMP Mon Jun 15 01:33:09 EDT 1998 i586
Config options: 0

Installed drivers:

Card config:

Audio devices:
0: Sound Blaster 16 (4.5)

Synth devices:
0: Yamaha OPL-3

Midi devices:
0: Sound Blaster 16

Timers:
0: System clock

Mixers:
0: Sound Blaster

In the 2.0.x kernels, I always had something under "Installed drivers" and
"Card config." What am I doing wrong?

Thanks
