[SLUG] very strange problem with my sound card (Fedora Core 1)

[Jeff Ai]

i am having a very strange problem with my sound card. it seems that Fedora Core 1 can only recognize my sound card  after a rebooting. ... that is everytime i start my machine, it could not recognize my sound card and generates this error in the message file

this is very annoying, and i have no clue what is going on here.

does any of you guys had similar problem?  and what could be the solution (workaround)?

thanks a million
