Many NForce2 mobo's seem to have the audio HZ problem mentioned here. 
I've fought with mine forever on that.  To get my mic working needed the 
latest Alsa drivers, but then the playback speed would actually bounce 
around.  Installing the kernel Intel drivers would fix the speed 
problem, but the mic won't work.
