Using 0.18.1, I have two audio problems, both of which I've researched quite a 
bit,
but thought I would check one last time if any solutions are available. I'm 
using an
ASUS P4P800-VM with on-board AC'97 audio using optical audio out to a receiver. Digital audio works fine for HDTV and DVD. The two problems are:

1) Very annoying, loud, audio drum-beat-like sound when playback stops, only
occurs occasionally. Happens when stopping liveTV, Recorded, mplayer, etc.
2) MythMusic plays back ripped audio too fast, chipmunk-style.

From what I can tell, most people don't experience these problems, and some have
suggested the MythMusic problems is due to cheap audio hardware.
If I'm going to buy an add-on PCI Audio Card, can anyone recommend one that
is known to work well with linux/MythTV?
I can recommend against a sound blaster live value, but only based on personal experience. There may be others here who have it working fine... But I confirmed my problem not to be motherboard compatibility as I was able to switch out motherboards easily and still had sound issues -er, I should mention I was using via mobos albiet different chipsets. My onboard sound actually works perfectly, way better than the SBlive did, so I use that. It seems people have good success with the orginal audigy. I know that sounds crazy because it also uses the emu10k1. Maybe the issue with the value is that it's extra crappy for your value and the regular live maybe fine. Also, I don't know how much of it is "cheap", because I got an old ensoniq audio pci working just fine in linux (es1370), also better working than the live value. More than likely you could still find both of those cards on ebay (well got an audigy from creative directly off ebay the other day).
