i have sound compiled as a module and it doesn't help.  whatever the reason
once it's been suspended the sound card appears to be left in a state that
the drivers can't initialize it properly.

i've tried suspending and then removing/reinstalling the drivers, and tried
removing the drivers, suspending and then reinstalling them and that does't
work either.

i'm currently using the yamaha opl3sa2 emulation with my card.  i haven't
experimented using the sound blaster emulation yet.  that might work better?

the bar and a 'couple' beers/martini's the worse for wear :)
