I had trouble also when I tried to compile 2.2.0 with awe32 sound.
It forces you to select sound as module and to use the ossfree drivers.
But what I did was apply the old awe patch to the kernel, which we have
been using for the 2.036 kernel. Then chose to use the ossfree drivers,
and sound was created as a module properly. What is going on?
I don't know, but that worked for me. I could use insmod sound,
and cat /dev/sndstat showed it all working.
