Rob same situation here, and the solution is in BIOS not in Linux. You need to noodle around through all the screens in BIOS and turn off the onboard sound. Some BIOS's have two places to do this some have only one. Mine had two. Some of the first boards with onboard sound had actual jumpers to turn on/off the onboard sound. Check the manual that comes with your Mobo if you can. James > >
