I have an asus nforce2 based board, and I found that gentoo sources ran the nvaudio really well (but the system crashed constantly, not because of the audio though), but when I swapped to gaming sources I could not get nvausio to work. I tried for weeks.
The alsa stuff (in my opinion) sucks. Their overhead is increadibly high, and its not true hardware supported.
In the end I went and found an old sblive card and stuck that in.. and I've never looked back.. I have flawless sound in all my games.

This isn't an exact answer to your question but have you tried the alsa drivers? I had this same problem earlier and the alsa drivers were the easiest solution. If you want to give them a try, take a look at http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/alsa-guide.xml . The specific alsa module you want is snd-intel8x0 .
Good Luck,
Doug
