I was also under the impression that this card doesn't quite work right
under alsa. I remember reading something about how the chip used in the Game
Theatre XP was well-documented and commonly supported, but the mixer setup
was difficult and unfathomable. Also, the last time I tried to use the
cs46xx module, the card was detected (to some degree), but then I
experienced a hard lock.

Does the driver still have the sound quality problems from this review in
April?

Tester One
This card has unacceptable performance in Linux. Tests in Windows showed
very
good quality, so the distortion, constant crackle and tin-can like sound are
driver issues.
Tester Two
Incredibly full of crackles, and I don't just mean a whole lot of snaps. The
music was very distorted and just barely recognizable.
Cheers,
Daniel.
