yes you are experiencing the same problem. 
you're lucky that sometimes your card work... my one not at all !
(i think i will stick back to my previous pc... even if it's old dated)

i think we could post en email to echo audio to see if they know
the problem and they have some patch around... i've seen we are not
the only people who are sharing the same problem, i've posted this
on the gentoo forum sometimes ago, but got no response back...
probably there isn't a real fix for this.

ps. di dove sei ? (io sono di Venezia)

ciao

I'm starting to think it's not a problem with shared IRQs, but a problem
with the driver.
I have an Echo-Audio board too (it's a MIA board). It seems that
sometimes it works... Sometimes simply not (for example, last evening,
when replying to the mail, it was working without any problem).
This time it doesn't work:

The audio card is not listed at all.
On boot, when running dmesg I get the same error message of you:
Echoaudio Mia: probe of 0000:01:09.0 failed with error -5

lspci says:
01:09.0 Multimedia controller: Motorola DSP56361 Digital Signal Processor
(does that :09 mean it would like to use IRQ 9, currently busy for ACPI?)

My current alsa-driver & firmware & everything is 1.0.13
It seems we're sharing the same problem :)
