SB Audigy not detected

I have just purchased an Audigy 2 soundcard (this one:
http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/products/index.html?product_uid=82109).
 I have an Asus A7V333 motherboard which has onboard sound, but there
is no way to disable the onboard sound in the BIOS (all the
information I could find indicated that the onboard sound would be
turned off automatically if there was a soundcard plugged in, but this
doesn't seem to be the case).

Gnome doesn't detect the soundcard at all, it doesn't appear in any of
the system tools and, even after I manually added entries to
modprobe.conf I am still stuck with only my onboard soundcard.  The
snd_emu10k1 module is getting loaded, it appears when I lsmod, but no
sound card device is created.

It does seem that the kernel knows the card is there, it just doesn't
seem to know what it is:

#/sbin/lspci | grep Creative
00:0e.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs: Unknown device 0008

#/usr/sbin/kudzu -p --class=AUDIO
class: AUDIO

detached: 0
driver: unknown
desc: "Creative Labs: Unknown device 0008"
vendorId: 1102
deviceId: 0008
subVendorId: 1102
subDeviceId: 1001
pciType: 1

pcibus:  0
pcidev:  e

class: AUDIO

subVendorId: 1043
subDeviceId: 80e2

pcidev:  5
pcifn:  0

So I'm thinking there will be a config file somewhere where I can
explain that the snd_emu10k1 is the driver for deviceid 0008?  Does
anyone know where that is - or am I barking up the wrong tree.  (BTW -
currently running 2.6.10-1.770_FC3 because I couldn't get fglrx to
work with the 2.6.11 kernel).
