I didn't play with any PNP settings but I went straight to 
/sbin/modprobe snd-sbawe and after alsamixer setting all options, and 
now great music is playing on my PC!!!
I hope that same procedure will work on myhome PC, a different card but 
also from Creative (Vibra 16)..
But the changes of modprobe are permanent??? I do not see any changes in 
modprobe.conf....

Actually I didn't buy a new card, I opened the PC of my friend while he 
was on holyday and I got a spare network adapter (Realtek 8139): I 
suppose that he will never miss the card
