Thanks for your help.

I followed your advice and compiled the driver for i386:

$ cat /proc/asound/version
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.17.
Compiled on Mar  1 2009 for kernel 2.6.26-1-686 (SMP).

yet, the situation is as before, ie. it works with the 16/48 setting,
but not at higher 'resolution'.


FWIW, I wasn't able to compile the module for the -amd64 kernel I
usually use (on my i386). It failed with:

Perhaps /usr/src/modules/alsa-driver does not understand --rootcmd?
If you see messages that indicate that it is not
in fact being built as root, please file a bug
against /usr/src/modules/alsa-driver.

(sorry for the wrapping in lieu of my mailer)
