Ok, Followed instructions and got the drivers. Sound much better. First time I fired up the drivers got front speakers -- at last!! But I was not happy, let me get my other speakers working. Edited my emu10k1.conf file in /etc and ran emu-script -- wow rear speakers. Oh, wait a minute -- no front speakers any more! edit script back, reran emu-script and still no front speakers! What is the deal? Checked hardware all good. So what can cause this? I have a sblive with fps2000 digital speakers.
