Ok, so, Eric, if what you say is true.  Then the Digium card should be fine
"sharing" an IRQ with a NIC in the BIOS. However, digium is insisting that
this is causing audio to go dead silent for 10-30 seconds every no and
then.  Your thoughts on this?

If you were running in XT-PIC mode and the two were actually sharing interrupts I can't imagine any situation where the audio loss would be 10-30 seconds, as that would indicate that the system was not servicing the interrupts from the Zaptel card for 10-30 seconds.

If something was locking interrupts for that long I would expect other issues like the keyboard and video not responding during that time.

Have you tried disabling the onboard ethernet? GigE drivers seem to lock interrupts for massively long amounts of time to keep up with the avalanche of data coming off the wire. This happens even when the device is not sharing an IRQ.
