Go to the computer store and get an off the shelf SoundBlaster. They are very reasonably priced. If you have a spare AGP port, go with a SoundBlaster AGP. If not, get a PCI. RH 9 will have no trouble finding and configuring it. If it doesn't, just run as root..

A couple of comments on SB sound cards. There are many varients of this card, many are legacy cards, such as those used by Gateway, are made to run in Windows on a Gateway system.
 
Pay close attention to the model number. If you bought a cheap SB online, chances are it is one of these cards. All kinds of issues. Model SB0100 rings a bell...I'll look it up later.
 
Also, when using a pci addon sound card, make sure that you disable onboard sound in the bios.
