Finally I’m enjoying quality sound from my X-Fi Xtreme Music sound card under Linux(Ubuntu 8.04). Unexpectedly the credit this time goes to OSS, not ALSA. The guys from the OSS project were the first to provide a working free driver for the X-Fi family of sound cards and I have to thank them for that.
If you have a X-Fi yourselves you might wanna check out these two articles – setup OSS on Hardy and configure apps to use OSS.
Enjoy.
