Yes, it is solvable.  In your system BIOS, make certain that your system is 
set to 'Non Plug-and-Play OS.'  This will enable the BIOS to assign 
appropriate IRQs and such.  You have some conflict, which I'm not 100% 
certain on how to track.  Someone on this list should be able to answer that 
part.  Once you figure this out, you should set a line in your kernel config 
(not sure on syntax) to the effect of assiging an unused IRQ.  It IS 
recognizing your sound card and trying to use it, but it's running into an 
Input/Output (that's where it gets IO in IO port space) conflict.
