What version of the card do you have?
There seems to be two versions, as far as the connectors are
concerned; one that looks like in "Getting started" (that you get
with OEM cards, at least), and one with a much smarter design.
The older (?) ones have Aux In and Rear Out in the same jack, and the
"lineout=1" option swithes it from Line In to Rear Out.
On the new (?) one (that I have), the "Speaker Out" has turned into
"Front Out", and can be changed between line/speaker with two jumpers
on the card. There is a Line In where the Speaker Out jack used to
be, and yes, it works in full duplex with the two Line Outs. :-) On
this card, "lineout=1" only enables the output from the jack that is
now ony Rear Out. AFAIK, the new Rear Out jack has no other function.
If your card is of the latter kind, your problem might be that the
Line In is actually where the "manual" says Speaker Out is; that is,
the 4'th (last) jack counting from the one closest to the
joystick/MIDI port. Check the card.
If it's the "old" card, make sure you do *not* use "lineout=1". Also
experiment some with the mixer. Mine seems a bit dodgy with the
kernel driver... (Works great with ALSA, though.)
