Hi
I'm at work & cannot provide you with specific details but i have had this before. Firstly, everytime you install new hardware it always takes some tweaking, once sorted, it works fine, so don't despair.
Any soundcard is better than the onboard soundcard, as sound is a major factor in using up pc resources when playing il2.
Your soundcard must have come with a tool that gives you all the fancy sounds, ie theatre, ballroom,disco & all that crap.
Keep things basic inititially, set up your il2 ingame settings to default, then play around with the sound card settings. Also you might need to adjust the ingame volumes etc, it's tedious work & it takes a while as every time you test you need to fly & see if it's sorted.
Select a/c that opens cockpit so you can also test the difference & fire your guns. Once you are happy, then slowly increase your in game settings until happy.
I have a link to a tutorial at home, i will post tonight. It was done prior to mods but it explains the issues wilth il2 & sounds & helped me in solving this problem.
good luckl
