yea, i had this problem with the first few releases of 3.3, it is was problem with my Nforce2 chipset, and the Silcone SATA onboard adator, and noscis worked great, but now when I do it I get no sound out of 2.6, but I don't even have this problem in 2.4?? Weird.

P.s. I have a Asus A7N8X deluxe mobo
