Sound Blaster, DOS and OS/2 Warp (Developers)

If you want a bridge just between OS/2 sound API and DOS hardware interfacing with SoundBlaster (or Gravis or few others) you could look into Allegro library (you need the Allegro 4.x.y because in Allegro 5 was the DOS support removed).
Allegro is considered as "best" C/DJGPP library for game development (mainly VIDEO+AUDIO) and it is open source and the sources are pretty clear.
The advantage for you is the fact that Allegro is multiplatform so the interface for AUDIO in very flexible and well-written
