Puppy 2.15CE problem with sound card

Puppy 2.14 detects and installs ens1371 sound card and it works properly. A little trouble is I have to install it every time I start Puppy. Puppy 2.15 detects this ens1371 too and says to me that he installed it but I can't hear anything. Pitty, because 2.15 looks much better. Thank you in advance ...
