It works about 80% of the time. The other 20% is silence and clicks. This result is in single user mode on console. i have the card alone on IRQ 9 and nothing else is sharing IRQ 9 (see attached lspci & dmesg output). joshua@almost:~$ cat /proc/interrupts CPU0 0: 20847 XT-PIC timer 1: 143 XT-PIC keyboard 2: 0 XT-PIC cascade 5: 0 XT-PIC usb-uhci 8: 1 XT-PIC rtc 9: 0 XT-PIC ICE1712 11: 384 XT-PIC usb-uhci, eth0 12: 25 XT-PIC PS/2 Mouse 14: 4794 XT-PIC ide0 15: 4 XT-PIC ide1 NMI: 0 ERR: 1 Turning on low-latency doesn't make any difference: joshua@almost:~$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/lowlatency 1 (i tried the same setup on my SMP motherboard. It doesn't work at all. 95% of the sound is lost. The Audiophile seems extremely sensitive to hardware.) i'm wondering if i have a defective Audiophile card?
