Unfortunately, I don't think I can.  It's one of those sawing the table 
leg situations...I changed soundcards because the one I had was junk. 
The new one is an M-Audio Revolution 7.1, which has a good reputation 
for quality sound (and so far it seems good to me). However, there's no 
support in OSS for Envy-based cards, only in ALSA. And trying to install 
the latest version of ALSA on my ancient RH9 installation was leaving me 
in dependency hell, so I installed FC3. So everything had to get changed 
at once and now my tabletop's about three inches off the ground. ;-)
