I could see it go either way, really. Perhaps Sauron had marginal control, but the ring wasn't completely controlled by it. Otherwise, it would never work for another master, ever. Gandalf mentions that the ing has a will of it's own, so it's conceivable that it could act without a master. Maybe Sauron was only master so long as the Ring allowed him to be.

I must ponder this further....
