I have exactly the same problem connecting an old Pioneer receiver to my
Audigy Platinum card. I've tried phono and DIN leads - same result. It's my
guess that I need shielded phono cables, where you ground the shield (copper
braid) at the source end and leave it open at the destination end as in:

which is obviously a rather expensive cable, particularly if that's not the
problem. They're quite easy to make up from Maplin's stock tho.

hi rob
i doubt that will be of any benifit to you, a ground isolating
transformer is what you require, the maplins one is nicely priced and
is a stereo unit i,e you only need one, and comes with phono plugs and
sockets maplins code VW43W http://www.maplin.co.uk/
