I needed a long to get my PCI 128 to work! At first I also compiled the es1370
support to the kernel, but it doesn't worked at first! I think sox crashed with
invalid buffer or something like that!
Then I tried the ALSA driver, I created /dev files and tried to compile the
driver and the library, but wasn't able to compile the library so I gave it up!
So installed again the kernel with the es1370 support and suddenly the 
soundcard works!
I don't really know why, but I think there was a problem with the /dev files.
Maybe this helps you a little bit!
