The sound card was crapping out on me, and finally got static and joined the silicon valley in the sky. I have a new card with the same chipset and it works great. Mine was around 6 or 7 years old. It finally croaked.

Well, that and kernel issues, but mostly the card was just flaky enough for me to think I had fixed it, then it would flake out again.
