Hi
Got it, there was a wrong default entry in /etc/modprobe.d/50-sound.conf ..made by alsaconf
alias snd-card-0 snd-ctxfi alias sound-slot-0 snd-ctxfi
moved it now to /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf and chanced to:
alias snd-card-0 snd_ctxfi alias sound-slot-0 snd_ctxfi
now it's fine ... so ... no conflict ... sorry. but maybe someone could look, why alsaconf had done this.
The PCI ID looks different from what snd-hda-intel driver supports. When compiled together with snd-ctxfi, snd-hda-intel only probes PCI ID 1002:0009.
Are you sure that it's hda-intel that interferes the xfi? Any relevant kernel messages or asound entry when this happens?

Found another problem ... maybe it isn't a bug ...
If I raise all volumes in alsamixer to 100% it starts to crackle while playing music ... If I lower one of the mixer volumes down to 90% it's fine. Maybe it's just overdriven ... but I'm relative sure, in windows I can gain everything to 100% without to be overdriven.
For now, I've set the PCM volume control to 90%, then I can do whatever I want with the master volume ;-)
