C-Media CMI-9880 audio problems

I have C-Media CMI-9880 built-in audio card on an Asus P5AD2-E motherboard. Vista recognized the sound card and installed drivers, but I have no sound. When I select audio devices by right-clicking the speaker icon in the taskbar, I see that the only one listed is a Digital Output Device (SPDIF). Clicking properties indicates that Vista is only recognizing the rear panel optical jack. In XP, I was using the analog jacks since I don't have a digital audio receiver.
Does anyone know how to allow Vista to pump sound to the other jacks? C-Media's website doesn't seem to indicate a Vista driver.

I use the same motherboard - The drivers for XP work fine!

Sorry for the duplicate post and thanks for the suggestion. I am very reluctant to use any XP drivers since my system crashed repeatedly after upgrading to Vista. I did a fresh install after formatting and Vista runs perfectly. The audio drivers were the only ones not recognized. I am using another sound card until I can find some Vista drivers.
