alsaconf should do this (it's in the alsa-utils package, I think). It detects the soundcard, loads the appropriate module, re-writes /etc/modprobe.d/sound so that the needed module is loaded at boot time, and then sets levels on the card,

I recommend using ALSA, especially if you have a 2.6.x kernel, but if you prefer to use the OSS sb driver, I think sndconfig is still part of Woody, so it ought to be available from any Debian mirror. Use the package search utility on the Debian site.

You'll probably still have problems if the system tries to load both OSS and ALSA modules. You'll need to disable one or the other. Good luck!
