Looks like you forgot to add support for the devive when doing 'make
config'.

Normally the answer is no, but you can try cp'ing the driver from
/lib/modules/2.2.14-5.0/sound to /lib/modules/2.2.16/sound
then do
depmod -a
Which quite possably will return a lot of "unresolved symbols"
If that is the case you lose.
Otherwise;
'modprobe name_of_module'

Looks like the same problem here, no support in the kernel.
