It DOES work on my ASUS A7V600-X (XP SP1 and MandrakeLinux 10.0)!
I only used it for a few weeks - until I bought an Audigy 2 ZS card.
1. Check the BIOS to see if the onboard AD1888 is enabled (3 values
automatic - enabled - disabled; both automatic and enabled should do
it). Of course disconnect your USB-sound when testing this.
2. Test the sound output plug of your mobo by connecting a simple
headphones and check if you hear something.
3. Read the documentation of your speaker system to know how to use them
as speakers / disable "the internal soundcard" ;-)
