From what I understood the card is detected by the kernel at boot (you see a message in the syslog) but not configured or activated. To do this you need to install the isapnp tools. pnpdump scans your ISA bus and prints to stdout a possible configuration file for your card. You edit this file selecting the settings you need, then feed it to isapnp which configures and activates the card.
Now you can load the kernel drivers with insmod snd-cs4232. If you don't do the isapnp step, the insmod will fail.
You can check if it worked with cat /proc/asound/oss/sndstat (or something like that), it should show the soundcard status.
I'm by no means an expert, so I cannot guarantee it will work for you like it did for me.
good luck,

I have no sound from CD player. Just to get information, I started the sound server. A reboot then gives the above message. It is probably the same reason my CD doesn't work?? It sounds like there is no sound driver, but harddrake says there is. A driver is also initialized in boot log.

More information: The sound module doesn't seem to be there!
#less /etc/modules.conf | grep sound alias sound-slot-0 snd-cs4232
# /sbin/lsmod | grep snd-cs4232
nothing??
# /sbin/lsmod (shows) snd 40868 0
