[linux-audio-user] still have bad sound

Greetings:

  I've narrowed down some parts of my current problems with sound. The 
mouse is definitely a noise-maker: I move, I get a not-nice ripping 
noise that tracks along with the mouse movement. I had hoped that the 
problem would be the nVidia binary video driver, but the problem occurs 
with the kernel sources driver as well. I've appended some background 
info in case anyone sees an obvious flaw in the system.

  A couple of things: I have no USB devices on this machine, so how can 
I get rid of the usb-uhci stuff hanging off the same interrupt as the 
SBLive ? Also, would it do any good to switch slots ?

  I've tried a number of different changes to XF86Config, got no joy 
from any. :(  I've been working through the various suggestions from the 
Audio Quality HOWTO, nothing has worked yet. I'm open to any other 
non-$$$ suggested solutions...

Best regards,

dp
