Well I got my sound working, but I had to pluck down $52.95 for a SB Live!
Value to do it!  I'm happy though, at least I can run the old WinAmp once
again.  My setup, for reference, is now:

AMD K7 7000 MHz @770MHz  (103/34 + 7)
Abit KA7
192 MB PC100 SDRAM
Matrox Mil. G200 (AGP Slot)
Adaptec 2940UW (PCI 1 Slot)
SB Live! Value (PCI 2 Slot)
Empty (PCI 3 Slot)
D-Link 10/100 NIC (PCI 4 Slot)
Empty (PCI 5 Slot)
Empty (PCI 6 Slot)
USR 33.6 Fax Modem (ISA Slot)
