I had the same problem with an Audigy 2 on a Asus motherboard (Alienware computer). You have to move the card to a PCI slot far away from the other cards.

Hi, all.
I'm having an odd problem with an SB Audigy 2 (OEM) sound card in a TUV4X mobo (Via chipset). Most of the time the system is playing sounds, there is a loud pop every 31 seconds coming from the card.
I have tried an older Audigy card and the same problem happens, and I have tried an SB Live! Value card, and the problem does NOT happen.
The sound comes and goes and it doesn't appear to correlate with any other hardware, but when the pops happen they are 31 seconds apart. I have installed the latest drivers from Creative Labs, and that seems to have stopped the popping when using Media Player to play music, but the popping still happens when playing .wav files or playing sounds in games.
Anyne have any idea what could be causing the popping sounds exactly 31 seconds apart????
