I don't really know why, but it happens sometimes on my machine with the same card as well. When I have problems, I power off the computer and then restart it again. The card will not properly load or function untill I do. There is probably some hardware lock that needs to be reset by powering off the card.<br>
<br>
The loading of the firmware sometimes takes a couple of seconds in my machine, it's not very fast. Besides check if the card, which is on a PCI-1x slot, doesn't share an IRQ with the onboard soundcard. That will seriously effect the performance of both the card and the sound.<br>
<br>
Good luck,<br>
<br>

<br>
My configuration is :<br>
<br>
- intel x86 platform<br>

- tevii_ds3000.tar.gz (firmware archive from <a href="http://tevii.com/tevii_ds3000.tar.gz" target="_blank">http://tevii.com/tevii_ds3000.tar.gz</a> ),<br>
- s2-liplianin mercurial sources ( from <a href="http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/s2-liplianin%29last" target="_blank">http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/s2-liplianin)last</a> changes at 05/29/2010,<br>
