For the archives -- an "NX Pro 16" actually uses an AZT2316 chipset and 
should use the snd-azt2320 driver. The Sound Galaxy Nova 16, Nova 16 
Extra, Orion 16 and Pro 16 use the sbd-sgalaxy driver.

Thanks, yes, that's a "real SB8 clone" as well. Don't have one...

The newer Sound Galaxy 16-bit boards also have just the base 0x220/0x240 
jumper and use the EEPROM for the other settings. At least the WSS IRQ 
and DMA channel on those can actually be set by software and I sort of 
suspect this might also be the case for the your card in fact, but well, 
no idea how and no hardware to try.
