Same thing ... after swapping the 1010 with the 2496 from my 64-bit to
my 32-bit (same distributions, different motherboards), I get hiss with
the 2496 in the 64-bit and no hiss with the 1010 in the 32-bit -- which
is a real bummer. I'm pretty crushed with the outcome seeing my 64-bit
is a pro-grade server build with the sole purpose of making music.
(NOTE: both run perfectly, even side-by-side in my windows xp machine).

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. 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.
Might it be a PCI interrupt priority issue? I only
have one PCI slot
in the board so I couldn't test that.
I only have one as well.
