Fedora Core 4 - Vibra 128 problem

I have been using my Creative Vibra 128 soundcard for several years on
SuSE 7 and Redhat 7.2. After upgrading from Redhat to Fedora Core 4 the
card was still working fine.
However, after a clean install to FC4 the soundcard does not work
properly anymore.
The card is detected as follows:
Vendor: Ensonic
Model: 5880 Audio PCI
Module: snd-ens1371
Card Information is as follows:
Model: CT4810
Chip: CT5880
Alsa drivers are the latest as provided in FC4. Problems are:
- Constant background noise
- Mouse movements cause crackling noise
- Gnome sounds are played but noisy
- Sound in tvtime is completely missing
- No sound can be heard when playing WAV files
Volume is adjusted properly. Its not a hardware issue because the card
is working fine in Windows.
Does anyone have a good idea why the card does not properly work in FC
despite proper detection? Pretty frustrating after using the card in
SuSE and Redhat for so long.

| I've had a similar problem with my Vibra 128 with recent Linux
distributions, including FC4 and Ubuntu 5.10. The card worked with
previous versions of Fedora (FC3) and Ubuntu (5.04). It looks like
someone has broken Vibra 128 support in the ens1371 driver recently.
The fact that it still worked after you updated is interesting, and may
indicate that the problem is with the configuration of the driver,
rather than the driver itself.
If you discover anything, please let us know.
