I have an AD1985 on my P4P800. Works fine.

The AC'97 controller in the ICH5 supports playing one stream only.

When an application tries to open a device that is already in use, it
can either report an error or wait (block) until the device becomes
available.

SuSE 9.0 already has ALSA 0.9.8 IIRC.

You might try ALSA 1.0.0pre3. Get the alsa-driver package from
http://www.alsa-project.org/, unpack it, then run

        ./configure
        make
        make install

then do the same with the alsa-lib and alsa-utils packages, then
reboot.
