Is there a manual way to bind a snd driver to my soundcard. Or is this card 
not supported?

Looks like you've got an Audigy, not an SBLive.

The SBLive is supported (I use them in several places) and they show
up like this;

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:5:0:  class=0x040100 card=0x80311102 chip=0x00021102
   rev=0x07 hdr=0x00
vendor   = 'Creative Labs'
device   = 'EMU1 Sound Blaster Live! (Also Live! 5.1)
- OEM from DELL - CT4780'
class= multimedia
subclass = audio

I'm assuming you don't have a supported card.

That sucks because it says on the box Creative Sound Blaster Live! 
24-bit. 
Is there a better way of picking one?
Thanks for your assistance

The sblive driver oly supports rather early models of SB Live and SB Audigy 
cards. Since Creative keeps revising their hardware rather rapidly, it might 
not be easy finding hardware that works with the available drivers. Usually 
Creative uses the older revisions of their chips in the budget-products, so 
I'd start looking there.

I may not make friends for suggestion this, but the OpenSound drivers 
have worked nicely for me. I have an older (i.e. natively supported) SB 
LIVE! card, but was having minor problems with it after upgrading to 
5.3. Being short on time, I downloaded the appropriate driver from 
http://www.opensound.com/. It works nicely, and allows me to use 
features of the card that I wouldn't be able to utilize with the native 
snd_emu10k1(4) module.

The latest release of OpenSound drivers are free for non-commercial use, 
with a caveat: Supposedly some sort of message will be played on your 
card when it's idle. I have no idea what the sound is, as my sound card 
is never idle thanks to xmms.

Good luck,
-Ash
