Could be a crappy chipset built into the motherboard, higher priority hardware interrupt on the PCI card than the motherboard USB host, phase of the moon, etc. As for trouble with the MICOR, what could POSSIBLY go wrong with a MICOR??? It's built to last (as long as the interboard connector pins last, anyway). Bote

Don't know why...but...picked up a 4-port USB PCI card from the big box store...plugged it in...figured out all the ports:
(tail -f /var/log/messages | grep USB)
re-edited my dongle config files...rebooted the system...clean audio...no 'cutting out'.
OK...so, the question (there is always that, right?) is...a bus card plugged into the peripheral bus works ok, but the on-board controller doesn't? WTF is that all about? ... Thx for all the suggestions last night. To be honest, I was ready to put an ad up on QTH and QRZ for the whole kit and kaboodle...between having to build a new system (thanks, KB2EAR for your guidance) on a 2-yr. old comptuer, and then it not running as well as it did on an 8-year-old failing laptop, issues with the micor, yadda yadda. Yeah, it's not a destination...it's a journey, right?
