Also, when you check the kernel config, make sure that you have it as a module, instead of being built into the kernel itself. This card has done some funky stuff for me. It works, but not the way I would expect it to. The standard test: "cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp" works fine as the normal user, but I don't get any of the "blips and whirrs" in my normal user account, that I do with root.
