Hey everybody. I just have onboard sound (ALC888) and cannot get TeamSpeak and my game (Urban Terror) to successfully work together. If TS is running I have no in game sound. I've tried messing w/ it to no avail. I've tried using aoss and still no luck. One guy in my clan has a AC97 integrated sound card and he said it "just works" fine in linux. He had to mess with nothing.

I was wondering if there is a cheap soundcard I can buy that will "just work" with it. I would rather not have to keep trying to hack it to get it to work. Any help would be much appreciated!

emu10k1 based soundcards work well in linux. Examples are the "SoundBlaster Live!" and the "SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS"
