I had the same problem with a Delta1010LT. It was running great on
Ubuntu Studio with a VIA MiniITX board that died on me. I replaced the
mobo with a Jetway VIA Nano and installed Debian amd64 and I got the
notorious hiss.
So I took the card out and now it's running in a WinXP box with no
issues. So it's definitely not the capacitors. I think the sound of dead
capacitors would be more like AC hum.
Might it be a PCI interrupt priority issue? I only have one PCI slot in
the board so I couldn't test that.

I'm getting closer to testing my new Delta
1010.
Are there any more reports of problems with the device?
I'm hoping there won't be. Hearing that some people get a "hiss"
noise is scary.
I'll be tracking 2 angles tomorrow with my hiss problem: 1) put the
card in another computer and; 2) failing (1), opening up the case and
checking capacitors. I've been reading a bit this week about burned out
capacitors.
... more tomorrow after I get my hands dirty.
