See if the resources for the card are registered (cat /proc/interrupts and
/proc/io*) They should not be if the modules is not working...

What output exactly does 
#modprobe es1371 give?

If it errors, what does 
# insmod -f es1371
offer?

Checking the hardware and connections seems wise, and shows you are
heading in a good direction.

also a copy of dmesg might be good to see ifg anything stands out...

Are you running any audio streaming software? (I Seem to recall soemthing
like vox---- or the like that could stop some access to /dev/audio... not
likely if your module is not even loading.)
