Just to clarify, OSS and ALSA are different worlds, although
ALSA usually emulates the OSS sound devices such as
/dev/dsp.
As Thomas writes, the driver for your card is snd-ice1712.
Try
$ sudo modprobe snd-ice1712
You may have to remove the OSS driver first with
$ sudo modprobe -r drivername
Try
$ cat /proc/asound/cards
to see what soundcards you have available. Here 'asound' means 'ALSA'.
I get an output like this:
--------
0 [V8237 ]: VIA8237 - VIA 8237
VIA 8237 with VIA1617A at 0xd000, irq 11
1 [DSP24 ]: ICE1712 - Hoontech SoundTrack Audio DSP24
Hoontech SoundTrack Audio DSP24 at 0xdc00, irq 11
--------
Next step (supposing the ICE1712 card is card 1:
$ envy24control -c 1
This mixer interface is a little more sophisticated than alsamixer.
Amazing that such FAQs can persist despite Herculean efforts
to get the word out!
