You still shouldn't be hearing any hiss from the Titanium HD. Strange.
Note that I only use the RCA output on mine, fed into an old Onkyo receiver that then amps it to speaker levels and feeds that to a Stax SRD-7/SB. And given the reputation that Stax and electrostatics in general have for being ruthlessly revealing, if there is any hiss coming from the sound card, I'd know.
Also, audio doesn't outright stop working with the Titanium HD in my experience. Fares better than most other X-Fi cards I've used in that regard; perhaps Creative wasn't kidding when they said they rebuilt the Titanium HD's drivers for Vista/Win7, at XP's expense.
