bug in artsd -can't correctly detect my hardware in 6.10

artsd cant correctly detect my hardware in 6.10.
As long as 'select the audio device' in sound system settings is set to autodetect, my system freezes for a few seconds, then I get an error message: cpu overload, aborting. No audio works. This reappears every few minutes.
If I manually select 'open sound system' everything is fine, even audio works.
If I type in the console artsd, I also get this cpu overload error.
The problem does not exist in Kubuntu 6.06, nor in Ubuntu 6.10 beta
The audio should normally be an AC97 chip. (not really shure... windows reports this...)
It's the onboard audio of the MSI KT6 Delta Mainboard
