I have the same chip on my Terratec EWS88MT.

It would be very usefull if you could send us an output to see which codec is 
used and other things.

I did not try Alsa 0.9 with MPlayer, but I know that the Envy24 chip is only 
supported on latest Alsa release (a CVS release based on the 0.9beta9 
version), so 0.9beta10 might work.

I think you are using the OSS/Free version, because OSS/Pro are a commercial 
version of sound drivers (and they work perfectly).
