The manual for your motherboard can be found at
  ftp://ftp.asus.com.tw/pub/ASUS/mb/socka/760mpx/a7m266-d/a7m266d-102.pdf
(sorry if it line-wrapped).  According to it (on pp 60-61), you can
disable the onboard audio in the BIOS on the Advanced screen under PCI
Configuration.

Just out of curiousity, did you get a pcm0 and pcm1 showing up at boot?
