I'm wondering if it is something to do with the IRQ settings. I presume when
you run the TT set-up program you are setting the IRQ and DMA values to
those shown in the Device Manager. The problem with PCI cards is the IRQ
steering, so the interrupt line may change. There is usually a way in the
BIOS set up to allocate an IRQ to a specific slot, and it might be worth
seeing if you can find a way to force your sound card to use IRQ 5 (say) and
no other all the time.

I might be barking up completely the wrong tree here, but I hope this helps.
