You should read some general Debian documents. I only have links to
german pages right now, but debian.org should give some pointers.

If you want do to anything remotely serious with audio you need to
install the ALSA drivers for your soundcards and libasound2.

These are the OSS/Free kernel drivers. You need to get rid of them ;)
by installing alsa-modules-2.4.18 and configuring the modules.
www.alsa-project-org/alsa-doc has detailed instructions for this. On
Debian, modules configuration takes place under /etc/modutils. With
modconf you can install or deinstall the kernel-modules. ALSA has
alsaconf to help with configuring the alsa-modules, but last time I
looked, this was broken. You might be better of by creating a file
/etc/modutils/alsa as described on alsa-project.org and run
update-modules as root by hand.

ciao
