If you get a new card, spend some money and be happier.

But this whole issue is probably worth addressing.  I know in years of 
Rosegarden, despite years of recommendations to the contrary, most people are 
still trying to make do with some total pile of crap.  Especially laptop 
users.  So it's well worth someone figuring out how to get something like the 
card you encountered to work with QAMix.  I'm just too busy to volunteer for 
that.  I have enough left on my TODO list at Rosegarden to keep me busy for 
the next 25 years at the rate I'm going.  (Though it's hard to imagine that 
any of this will still exist 25 years from now.  I wonder when Linux and 
Rosegarden will become totally obsolete, like 5.25" floppy disks.)
