Late last nite I 'tried one last thing' and it happened to be the solution. Plug and pray got me. Since my hauppauge tv card was still working fine, I figured the hardware was fine. What I totally forgot about was the tv card connects with a jumper and doesn't go thru the machine at all. I removed IRQ5 and DMA5 from PnP eligibility and away it all went. It started making sense when icecast's shout worked and mpg123 worked in 'test' mode or to stdout since none of them use the soundcard.
