1 I'm running gentoo on an IBM R40 Thinkpad with KDE 3.5, sound works fine, here's my interupts:
2
3 CPU0
4 0: 11782751 XT-PIC timer
5 1: 15682 XT-PIC i8042
6 2: 0 XT-PIC cascade
7 7: 0 XT-PIC parport0
8 9: 190543 XT-PIC acpi
9 11: 22768972 XT-PIC yenta, ICH4, ath0, uhci_hcd:usb2, uhci_hcd:usb3, uhci_hcd:usb4, ehci_hcd:usb1, Intel 82801DB-ICH4, radeon@pci:0000:01:00.0
10 12: 7169 XT-PIC i8042
11 14: 154672 XT-PIC ide0
12 15: 138253 XT-PIC ide1
13 NMI: 0
14 LOC: 0
15 ERR: 0
16 MIS: 0
17
18 As you can see, my usb ports, my radeon graphics card and the sound card, (Intel 82801DB-ICH4), are all sharing interupt 11.
19
20 I would be considering making sure that the correct sound card drivers are compiled into the kernel, (or as modules).
