Now sound works! (cue: 'And there was much rejoicing...'). My modprobe.conf is
as follows:
# cat /etc/modprobe.conf
alias eth0 3c59x
alias usb-controller uhci-hcd
# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
alias snd-card-0 snd-cs4236
options snd-cs4236 isapnp=1
After setting up modprobe.conf correctly I ran
# modprobe snd-card-0
Then ran alsamixer to adjust the levels from 0 and muted up to audible.
Thanks, and I hope this word for the OP as well.
