Anyways, got the solution. Unloaded all the OSS modules i.e i810_audio and ac97_codec. Installed alsa using apt-get install alsa. Configured the card using alsaconf. Adjusted the mixer settings using alsamixer. Did alsactl store. Now everything works! Thanks, Kaustubh -- "We all know Linux is great...it does infinite loops in 5 seconds."
