ac97 is a collection name for various soundcards.
For my laptop I have to use "VIA 82C686A/B, 8233/8235 AC97 Controller".
What brand and type of mb do you have?

I'd suggest installing pci-utils and trying out the lspci command. For
instance, this old thing has:

$ lspci | grep YMF
00:0c.0 Multimedia audio controller: Yamaha Corporation YMF-724F [DS-1
Audio Controller] (rev 03)

That corresponds to

CONFIG_SND_YMFPCI=m

Here's pci-utils:
