I'm sorry to be flooding your seemingly pretty quiet mailing list with my problems. But this sound card problem seems to have created quite a stir, and i think that it would be in the interest of everyone that runs an alpha that the reason for all the sound card issues be resolved.
So far i've tried: -SBLive! -Creative AWE64 -Creative Sound Blaster 16 -Crystal Sound 4280
I run an AWE64 in my LX. 2.4.16 under mostly testing/some unstable. Config:
CONFIG_SOUND=m
CONFIG_SOUND_OSS=m
CONFIG_SOUND_DMAP=y
CONFIG_SOUND_SB=m
CONFIG_SOUND_AWE32_SYNTH=m
CONFIG_SOUND_YM3812=m
CONFIG_PNP=y
CONFIG_ISAPNP=y

I'm running isapnptools version 1.26-1. I don't think this version needs an isapnp.conf, but I do have a straightforward one for this card left over from before.
Hope this helps. -Doug
