I'm going backwards. I replaced the pseudo-X-Fi card with a Audigy 1,
and now get no sound out. The card is set as default device. The module
loads fine. Alsa mixer is set where it should be. Aplay of a test file
runs OK. Signals at the miniplug sound in speakers. 

This seems a loosing proposition. I may have an Audigy2 PCI card
somewhere and I have a second Audigy 1. I am spending so much time on
this that I'd best take your advice and reinstall, this time remembers
to wipe the partitions clean. But can't do it now. 

Incidentally, people often mention that the onboard sound chips are
greatly improved. I wonder, if you think it produces sound quality
comparable to these older cards.
