I am running a dual-head system and I have a small problem with the
sound related to the video cards.  When sound is played on the AGP card
there doesn't seem to be any problem at all, but when I watch a video,
scroll on a web page, or open gnome-terminal and type on the pci card
(the geforce 4) it will begin to distort badly.  I have tried many
"fixes" to this solution not limited to:  adjusting the latency, moving
pci cards around, recompiling Xfree, and reinstalling the nvidia
driver.  My setup seems to be otherwise just fine.  I can post my
XF86Config if necessary, but I am hoping this is some known issue.

System specs:

Gentoo Linux
XFree86:  4.3.0
using Nvidia's driver
Xinerama is on (note this doesn't seem to matter)
Athlon XP 1800
512mb mem
Geforce 2
geforce 4 mx440
