I have the same bastard chipset in a asus p4r-800vm, men it hourts.

actually, 5 minutes ago I installed a 5 years old es1370 card to get rid of 
that problem you describe.....imagine, it works. ;-)

on alsa-devel & users there were some threads that if you play with acpi it 
would work - I havent had success.
kernel options you could try (i did all, reboot freaking 100 times)
acpi=off
acpi=noirq
pci=bios
pci=biosirq
noapic

and, of course a combination of any these......

alsa-dev's talk about acpi-bug, or you need a preemptive kernel and stuff 
alike .
don't wanna blame them (i am not a coder at all), but tell me why my e1370 
works without any tweaking described above ? it is a driver issue imho.

good luck !
