Cards based on the Envy chips (ICE1712, ICE1724) have high chances of
being supported and the chips is very good in itself. However the
chipset alone is no guarantee for a supported card, so it's better to
take a look at the soundcard matrix. But even this is sometimes out of
date, so an even better bet would be to use the source, Luke: If you
can browse the ALSA sources, you may find references to cards in
question.
For your chaintech card, there are some promising results when grepping for
"chaintech" in my (older) kernel sources:
/usr/src/linux/sound/pci/ice1712/amp.c: /* Chaintech AV-710 has another codecs, which need initialization */
/usr/src/linux/sound/pci/ice1712/amp.c: .name = "Chaintech AV-710",
/usr/src/linux/sound/pci/ice1712/amp.h: "{Chaintech,AV-710},"
/usr/src/linux/sound/pci/ice1712/vt1720_mobo.c: .name = "Chaintech ZNF3-150",
/usr/src/linux/sound/pci/ice1712/vt1720_mobo.c: .name = "Chaintech ZNF3-250",
/usr/src/linux/sound/pci/ice1712/vt1720_mobo.c: .name = "Chaintech 9CJS",
/usr/src/linux/sound/pci/ice1712/vt1720_mobo.h: "{Chaintech,ZNF3-150},"\
/usr/src/linux/sound/pci/ice1712/vt1720_mobo.h: "{Chaintech,ZNF3-250},"\
/usr/src/linux/sound/pci/ice1712/vt1720_mobo.h: "{Chaintech,9CJS},"\
So it seems, at least someone has started to work on it. I don't know
the status, though.
Ciao
