I tried using another soundcard, a Creative one. No joy. It has something to with Linux and the VIA chipset (my sound subsystem is a C-Media solution) and there are quite a few problems under Linux for a variety of hardware in their interactive with the VIA chipset. My advice is to avoid VIA chipset motherboards. The thing works in Windows due to 'tuned' drivers. Unfortunately, it does not appear that that kind of thing is going to happen in the Linux side of things. Maybe the latest offerings from VIA are better but I don't know.
