I guess it is possible to do so.. though i have not tried it out myself.. I
have pasted the following line frm a book, maybe this helps...

sound=0xKPPPID
        tells the board driver the kind of parameters of all installed sound
cards. A sound card parameter is a hexadecimal number (0xKPPPID) where K is
soundcard id number (<linux/soundcard.h>) PPP determines the base port number
address, I the IRQ and D Dma channel.

sound=0x222051 defines a sounblaster card on base address 0x220 IRQ 5 and DMA
1.

do tell me if this helps..

Regards,
Mayank
