It a VIA VT8233 AC97 card, and I have been using it with SuSE all the time, I sometime must restart my system to get my sound to work. I have used YAST to delet the card, reboot my system, and let Yast find the card again. Just the same, the sound is choppy and it skip for a little second, the loop thing has gone. It is as my system are running on a heavy load. If I fire up my 10.0, on the same PC, the sound is o.k. It must be something with the update that my system do not like. It is fine from the start. I have got mp3 to work, xine are playing DVD, mplayer, mplayerpluginn and w32 codec work. I have installed my opensusue 10.1 10 times, and it is the sound that gives my problem. First time it was when I tried to install NVIDIA card for my system, then the sound broke.

My first guess would be that there is some unnecessary load on the cpu then, which would cause sound from the motherboard to act in the manner you describe. I'm sure there are some things running in 10.1 that wasn't in 10.0, which may account for the difference you note between them.
The new ZMD stuff for updates/yast2, beagle, can all be sources of over taxing the cpu. Again, the best solution is a PCI sound card. They are inexpensive now, so to get your best sound, that's the way to go. Otherwise, search for the causes of the extra cpu usage and either remove those or learn to live with the occasional choppy sound.
Wish I could be more encouraging about your problem, but what you describe is a common problem with built-in sound on the motherboard. I've never run across one that didn't have this problem, no matter what OS is installed.

I did a search in an old desk, and I found an old PCI card, it was an Creative Sound Blaster, and after I installed this, the sound is fine. Thank you. But how do I disable the on-board card. After a restart, I have to use Yast to change to the Creative Card, my PC start with the on board card as default.
