There are two patches fixing emu0404 support on ALSA HG tree after 2.6.24-rc1 merge. I guess this might help. Unfortunately perex/alsa.git tree isn't updated for them...
Created attachment 13397 [details] Fix #1 for emu0404
Created attachment 13398 [details] Fix #2 for emu0404
I extracted from HG tree. Could you try the patches above?

Build with CONFIG_SND_DEBUG=y and CONFIG_SND_DEBUG_DETECT=y. This will give you more verbose probe messages.
It doesn't seem to have changed much so I activated CONFIG_SND_VERBOSE_PRINTK which gives some more messages: dmesg output after plugged in card: pccard: CardBus card inserted into slot 0 PCI: Enabling device 0000:07:00.0 (0000 -> 0001) ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:07:00.0[A] -> GSI 21 (level, low) -> IRQ 16 ALSA sound/pci/emu10k1/emu10k1_main.c:1697: vendor=0x1102, device=0x8, subsystem_vendor_id=0x20011102, subsystem_id=0x2001 ALSA sound/pci/emu10k1/emu10k1_main.c:1722: Sound card name=Audigy 2 ZS Notebook [SB0530] PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:07:00.0 to 64 ALSA sound/pci/emu10k1/emu10k1_main.c:220: Audigy2 value: Special config.

I do not think that this is an ALSA problem. I think this is a kernel related problem. The ALSA driver expects udelay(10) to correctly delay a certain amount of time. This is not happening, so I suspect a kernel clock issue. Seeing messages like this: Clocksource tsc unstable (delta = -213528793 ns) seem to support this point of view. Nothing has changed in ALSA that would cause this sort of problem. You could verify this by installing alsa-driver 1.0.14 and then 1.0.15 and you will probably not see any change in this bug.
Created attachment 13472 [details] .config Kernel configuration I have added my kernel configuration.
Fix available in alsa-kernel hg repository, changeset 5521 It turns out that after plugging in the card, it gets power, but a delay of 200ms has to be added after power on, before the card can be initialised and configured.
Unfortunately it still happens with changeset 5521. dmesg output from start: PCI: Enabling device 0000:07:00.0 (0000 -> 0001) ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:07:00.0[A] -> GSI 21 (level, low) -> IRQ 16 ALSA sound/pci/emu10k1/emu10k1_main.c:1673: vendor=0x1102, device=0x8, subsystem_vendor_id=0x20011102, subsystem_id=0x2001 ALSA sound/pci/emu10k1/emu10k1_main.c:1698: Sound card name=Audigy 2 ZS Notebook [SB0530] PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:07:00.0 to 64 ALSA sound/pci/emu10k1/emu10k1_main.c:218: Audigy2 value: Special config.

Created attachment 13511 [details] This patch (alsa hg#5530) adds mixer control parameter limit checks. This should fix this bug. Please try.
Note: Try to find an "asound.state" on your PC somewhere before trying this patch, as this patch will over write the current bad one. Maybe it is placed elsewhere. Try cd /etc/init.d grep alsactl * grep asound * This might give you some pointers as to where it is.
Created attachment 13512 [details] old asoundconf.state Found asoundconf.state under /var/lib/alsa.
Thank you. You can try the patch now.
That asoundconf.state was trying to write 1070542911 to a control that only knows how to handle values 0 and 1, thus an overflow and the page fault. This 1070542911 is a left over from alsa bug#3095 https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=3095 whereby that bad value is saved by alsactl into your asoundconf.state file. So, although alsa bug#3095 was fixed, it still let the bad value back via alsactl restore. The new patch catches the out of limit parameters and therefore prevents a page fault.
The latest patch fixes the problem. Many thanks! Great work!
