What does your /etc/conf.modules show? At a command line, enter:
cat /proc/interrupts
cat /proc/ioports
cat /proc/dma
Do these show what you think you have configured? It might just be the
midi port that is giving you the failed message. I can't get mine to
work, but don't need it, so I removed the midi entries from
/etc/conf.modules. I've also found that sndconfig will sometimes just
keep adding entries to /etc/conf.modules instead of replacing them. Try
working with just the older 8 bit sound card first.
