[mythtv-users] Changing sound cards

Hi List,

   I'm a little in the dark as to where to troubleshoot this.

   I had a working system:  a brand new ASUS motherboard, some PCI sound
   card.  I want to use the PCI slot for another HD5000, so I pulled the
   sound card, rebooted, and enabled the on-board sound on the
   motherboard.  Ever since then, I've had no sound.

   I'm not sure what to do.

   Are the wrong modules being loaded?  How do you change them?  

   lspci reports this:
00:10.1 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP51 High Definition Audio (rev a2)

    and nVidia memory controller, ethernet port, host bridge, PCI
    bridge, etc...

    and lsmod reports these for sound:
snd_ice1724            67252  0
snd_ice17xx_ak4xxx      7296  1 snd_ice1724
snd_ac97_codec         94116  1 snd_ice1724
snd_ac97_bus            6144  1 snd_ac97_codec
snd_ak4114             11776  1 snd_ice1724
snd_ak4xxx_adda        10624  2 snd_ice1724,snd_ice17xx_ak4xxx
snd_mpu401_uart        10880  1 snd_ice1724
snd_rawmidi            22944  1 snd_mpu401_uart
snd_seq_device         10508  1 snd_rawmidi

AND:
snd_hda_intel          19096  0
snd_hda_codec         159232  1 snd_hda_intel
snd_pcm_oss            42912  0
snd_mixer_oss          18176  1 snd_pcm_oss
snd_pcm                69380  6
snd_ice1724,snd_ac97_codec,snd_ak4114,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec
,snd_pcm_oss
snd_timer              22404  1 snd_pcm


    There is also a module loaded called:
nvidia               4545108  20

I assume the nvidia is the "nvidia universal driver" thing all the
marketing sprays about.  

    So, my questions are:
    1)  Are all those sound modules loaded for the old sound card?
    2)  How do I change what modules are loaded?
    3)  What are the correct modules?

    I am running KnoppMyth R5F1

    For The first person to help ,  I'll provide an .xml file of their
    local listing FREE OF CHARGE!!
