DC,

Others have reported problems with that particular STAC92xx Analog hardware,
though physically, it was the easiest to try first.

Next try putting int the PCI card that gave diagostic:
01-00: Intel ICH - Modem : Intel 82801DB-ICH4 Modem - Modem : playback 1
The setup command for this card is:
$ sudo slmodemd -c USA --alsa  modem:1

The driver occassionaly dies during usage.  But one can recover by
stopping slmodemd with
$ Ctrl-C
Then unload and reload the driver
$ sudo modprobe -r snd-intel8x0m
$ sudo modprobe snd-intel8x0m
and reactivate the modem:
$ sudo slmodemd -c USA --alsa  modem:1
