Hammerfalls use to be somewhat difficult with their firmware. I had to
build my own from fairly old ALSA sources. Also, for cardbus based cards
the firmware must be loaded and the card initialized at boot time.
Have you tried using hdsploader and HDSPConf?

If I had a letter, sealed it in a locked vault and hid the vault
somewhere in New York. Then told you to read the letter, thats not
security, thats obscurity. If I made a letter, sealed it in a vault,
gave you the blueprints of the vault, the combinations of 1000 other
vaults, access to the best lock smiths in the world, then told you to
read the letter, and you still can't, thats security.
