hello,
had the same problem some time ago with an onboard intel8x0 chip and a
soundblaster card, chip [snd-]ca0106 under sarge.
it worked like a proverbial russian roulette.
tried both chips together out under slackware10.2 as well. got within a few
days the same problem.
i was not able to solve these troubles, so i disbabled for the time being the
intel chip, because the soundblaster sound quality is much better on my
machine.
so i sustain the request of sjoerd: if somewbody knows a solution for this:
please put this on the list.
thanx,
and
kind regards,
steef
