The sb module from the kernel works.
IIRC, sb16 had a hard time detecting the chip (though I haven't tested it again recently), but ALSA snd-card-sb16 is all right so you'll probably want to use the later.

This is with the sb16 driver?

Its been fine on my CS5530 since 2.2. We have the DMA emulation bug and the
disable_dma emulation bug fixed up nowdays

Do you know if this is standard with the SC1200 chip?

In the BIOS. There is 64K or so of deep magic SMM emulation firmware in the
Geode system. Much of the PC compatible I/O is not in fact real but smoke and
mirrors games played in the processor behind Linux back. This includes the
SB16 interface.

Ask your vendor what firmware is in their BIOS

But if you have the option I'd recommend to use one of the native
drivers. National have drivers for both OSS and ALSA, and the ALSA
driver is under a BSD license. (The OSS driver I don't know about,
it doesn't say anything about licensing conditions.)
