any idea would be helpful

It might help to provide the output of lspci -v (what is your sound card?) and lsmod
Usually loading modules is done by modprobe (modulename)

Perhaps the sound is "choppy" because you don't want the oss module?
Have you done alsaconfig? Also you can test and try different sound devices
using kmenu>settings>control center>sound & multimedia>sound system.
