I don't really know why, but it happens sometimes on my machine with the
same card as well. When I have problems, I power off the computer and
then restart it again. The card will not properly load or function
untill I do. There is probably some hardware lock that needs to be reset
by powering off the card.
The loading of the firmware sometimes takes a couple of seconds in my
machine, it's not very fast. Besides check if the card, which is on a
PCI-1x slot, doesn't share an IRQ with the onboard soundcard. That will
seriously effect the performance of both the card and the sound.
Good luck,
Hans

Any ideas why this happens?
