Is there anything I can do in the BIOS to change the IRQ for my sound card to something other than 16?

On current systems, you do not really have any definitive power when it comes to IRQ settings.  Try putting the card into another slot and see what happens then.

Are you having any issues with the IRQ being 16?

I can't really put it in another slot since I have 3 GTX 480's installed but before I got my 3rd 480 I had tried it in another slot and it grabed the same IRQ.  Sounds like I'm stuck with 16 for the sound card.  In regards to having any problems.  I can't say that I am but I really don't like the idea of 3 video cards, USB host controller, and a sound card fighting for the same IRQ.  It would give me peace of mind to seperate the sound card.

If you aren't noticing issues, then you shouldn't worry about it.  I believe you're getting worked up over something that isn't a problem.
