that depends on your card. I've had a little trouble with my non PNP sb16 and alsa and I have no idea why. I ended up just installing winblows on the box with that card bc I got a faster box to replace it as a linux machine. but once you get it working alsa works great with these cards. it's the setup that can be a problem. this may differ depending on what card you have. like I installed a sb16 pnp in a box I was working on and alsa worked fine with it.
