Actually you may have hit on the reason for things working/not working/working
again.
When I first bought this Intel Motherboard (and the one before it) the onboard
stuff (sound, ethernet) didnt work since they were one step beyond what was
supported by Linux. Over time ethernet, sound, etc have come on line.
I suspect that the sound, which wasnt supported, became supported, and then
to run some specific program (VMWare) I had gone back to an old kernel
and had the intel not supported so that the sound blaster did...
