Oh come on, I've been working with all Linux, FreeBSD and Windows.

Getting a different card is not the solution. It is actually an absurd
suggestion which goes to prove further that Unix has not matured yet
to compete with Microsoft.

The FreeBSD 6.0 kernel has a wrapper for using binary Windows device
drivers. IIRC the main motivator (see above) was for broad WiFi hardware
support. Might be able to use Windows sound card drivers for all I
know.
I don't think so... wireless cards have a specific grand unified interface called NDIS, whereas I'm 99.9% sure that different vendors have different interfaces for sound cards. Read: http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/ for more info on NDIS.
