Per the forum some audigy cards don't work right with 32 bit range and the 
current method being used:

 http://4front-tech.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2920 (oss_sblive).
 http://4front-tech.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2979 (he uses oss_audigyls with 
sb 7.1).

Possibly changing this to 31bit range for 4.1 is good enough?
