Maybe I am mistaken and it didn't work on my last install either, but I just never noticed it. I did just barely get a new Dell workstation and am using the onboard Audio. It's AC97, which always seems to work well for me (the VIA chip set anyway). Thanks for the help, I may just have to deal with it for now. I'll keep googling and hitting forums and hopefully I can be done with this annoyance some day.
