You mention "pnpdump [works]" - have you edited the isapnp.conf file
to select the appropriate values, then added code to rc.local (or
wherever) to execute isapnp during startup before loading the sound
driver?
Is your SMC an ISA card or PCI? If ISA, make sure isapnp.conf
specifies unique resources for each card.
My "tulip" PCI card, a Netgear fa310, works fine; however my work
machine has a 3C905 PCI that gets so screwed up by Micro$lop Windoze
that it reports a MAC address of ff.ff..... A quick power cycle fixes
it.
Naturally, booting Linux first works fine & Linux DOES NOT*up
the MAC address.
