You need to place an "options" line into /etc/modules.conf, similar to:

alias sound sb
options sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=0

Adjust the I/O address and DMA channel to suit; these are common values.
If it's a dual-boot box, best to use the same values as the Win32 side.

To test this, the equivalent insmod syntax would be:

insmod sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=0

If you have the "kernel-doc" RPM installed, see this file for more info:

/usr/share/doc/kernel-doc-<version>/sound/Soundblaster

Also, see the "modules.conf" man page.

HTH!
