I don'tknow about Mandrake 7.0 but under 6.5 a call to /sbin/sndconfig as
root sorts a lot of cards out. Have you tried that?
The odd thing is the playing half of the sample. Is it playing it at double
sample rate or anything?

I doubt that its DMA channel, as there is only one DMA I can set the 8-bit
sound to and get any audio at all.
so, lets try it this way...
For functions sake, lets pretend that I just brought this sound card home,
neve having had one in this machine. What do I need to compile/set in order
to get this sound card working propperly?
