Then it's probably the sound card. ;)

Can't know a work around w/out knowing which one is causing the problem, and
it's impossible to know which one from what you've said. Good method is
simply to yank one card at a time. Best method would have been to add them
one at a time. Never change a lot all at once. In addition, it's entirely
possible that either card will work just fine alone, but not together.
