[K12OSN] what sound cards y'all use in server?

[Terrell Prude', Jr.]

Would it be possible to try out an old SoundBlaster 16?  I know those 
work, 'cause I've got 25 of them working.  Also, the config info's 
already in the default lts.conf.  Might help as a troubleshooting step 
if you can possibly work this on, say, one client.
