Ok, getting closer.
Seems like whatever software you want to make sound with is adressing
the old soundchip.
-Try to select your new sound chip as primary sound hardware.
-Try to remove or disable all drivers of nonexistent hardware from
device manager.
If you want to play safe, delete all sound entries in device manager and
reinstall the newest sound drivers from the manufacturer's website.
