Here is the output of lspci. My take here is that the /proc/iomem and
the lspci agree on the memory for the wmp11. For the sound card the
lspci displayed a port in place of a memory address and I can't figure
out how to match it to the iomem output.

This looks almost identical to my system, except I don't have a pci
wireless card. The Sound Blaster card doesn't use mapped memory for I/O
operations. Instead, it uses a DMA (Direct Memory Access) channel to
move data.
I'm running out of things to try. I'm not sure which kernel you are
running, but you can see if the modules have any debug capabilities by
using modinfo like so:
$ modinfo snd_emu10k1
$ modinfo orinoco_pci
On my system (kernel 2.6.20-1.2315.fc5 for Fedora Core 5) neither of
these modules have debugging capabilities.
To try and eliminate as may outside factors as possible, you should try
a minimal test. Try starting in command line mode (no X Window system),
and on one console play a WAV file (because it's basic PCM) using
something simple like "aplay" which is part of alsa-utils, and on
another console use something like wget to retrieve a file. Run top in a
third console to see if anything is eating up the CPU or memory while
the two are interacting.
This may be time to file a formal bug report to see if you can get some
more expert advice. I'm not going to recommend running a kernel debugger
on the newbie list :o
