Unfortunately I don't know what your problem might be, but it's not the 
existence of that second entry. The AC97 bit is just another component of the 
sound card. For example, I see

pcm0: <Creative EMU10K1> port 0x1840-0x185f irq 11 at device 13.0 on pci0
pcm0: <SigmaTel STAC9708/11 AC97 Codec>

in my dmesg for a SoundBlaster Live 5.1, and my sound works fine (okay, I'm 
using -current, but it worked fine on -stable too). The question marks with 
your AC97 might indicate a recognition problem, but I don't know...

Does 'cat /dev/sndstat' show an installed sound card?
