I had this same prob with a soundblaster under SuSE, RedHat and Slackware (I
switched from Slackware to SuSE and played with RedHat just to try it out).
The problem was BIOS was locking it out. I changed IRQ 5 to be available for
isapnp and it was immediately taken by my scsi card and video card, so I
loaded the soundcard at IRQ 11 :).

Same prob I had. This was under 2.0.3x, 2.1.x and 2.2.x. Once I changed the
bios AND went to a higher irq it worked. Just moving to a higher irq before
hadn't worked...
