I'm willing to bet that you have a Phoenix BIOS, there is a known bug between the VIA southbridge and the Phoenix BIOS, the P-n-P part of the sound device is unstable (can't keep track its assigned resources). This is a matter of VIA blaming Phoenix, Phoenix blaming VIA and noone actually fixing it! The only workaround I've found is to purchase a seperate sound card, and try to disable the onboard sound device. I don't think that is what you wanted to hear, but I hope it helps a little.
