Wel, I have the same motherboard, and here it works perfectly, I use Alsa.I cannot completly garanty current debian is alright, as I don't use the debian kernel, but a self compiled one. I don't think this is a problem with the kernel or debian though.What went wrong when you installed Alsa ? note that Alsa might not work if oss is still active (check with lsof if both oss and alsa are loaded). If this isn't the case, try running alsaconf from a console, and follow instructions.Have fun, Ernest.
