All -
from what i read in the link from the evga forum it looks like there are more problems with the audio than just vent, which could be a problem with the hardware or the driver (and the driver would be my first choice). vent interfaces solely with the driver.
i also noticed that there are at least 3 different audio chips:
VIA VT2020 (asus)
Realtek ALC889A (gigabyte)
Realtek ALC889 (msi)
which version does your mobo have?
