[GRLUG] 2nd Audio Card Not Recognized.

[arcturus]

If onboard sound isn't adjustable in bios is there a jumper on the
motherboard to enable/disable?

I've had some luck with sound card recognition by running, as root,
the following command:  alsaconf 

PCLinuxOS also has a sound card configuration utility found in configuration > 
pclinuos control center > hardware.
