This may be a kernel issue rather than a sound issue.

How do I find out how cs46xx was compiled? 
In this case, it's quite simple: you look at the version of your kernel.
ALSA was not merged into the kernel until early in the 2.5 development
series. You are using a 2.4 kernel, therefore there is no way for it to
be compiled any other way than as a module.
