Problem is that you probably have your card in the slots controlled by
the second bandit host bridge; which is not automatically scanned.
Try moving your card into a different slot (close to the graphics
card). Of the six slots, three each are controlled by a separate bandit
host bridge.
I'm working on a patch that scans the second PCI bus as well. I'll let
you know when I have something available.
