You've got a funny soundcard!

I'm using a Creative SB64PCI (antique thingy). Most people using a
modern Creative card plus a fairly new driver (2.4.20 drivers, for
example) seem to be quite happy. The SB!Live seems to have some quircks
if you're not using the --use-read option, but besides that, it works
well, too.

Anyway, if your card supports 16bit/stereo/44.1kHz, I wouldn't worry too
much, that's all you need. ;).
