OK, gotcha. Thanks.

Yes, this board doesn't have SPDIF. And not too many card slots either,
I want to keep the one PCI slot remaining open for possible future
external eSATA drives for more storage rather than get a PCI sound card.
So I am sticking with the interal analog sound.
And you know what, it sounds great (with the old kernel/ALSA driver)
paired up with a set of Logitech X-540 5.1 speakers. My "real work"
computer (actually computers, one XP and one Ubuntu with three monitors
and a KVM switch!) has a set of 2.1 speakers hooked up to internal
analog sound cards and you can hear web pages scroll up and down ;-).
So I was very pleasantly surprised at how great my analog MythTV
Intel-HDA/Logitech X-540 set up sounds.
I basically do have the sound working with 8.04's new kernel/driver, at
least as well as it is going to work. The new driver just isn't as
good, so I don't want to stick with it.
