i know nothing about esound, but im curious about which sblive module 
you are using in 2.4.x. there is emu10k1 included with the source, and 
then there is a build of emu10k1 with OSS support available from 
creative.com (dont remember where -- if you cant find it, i have the 
tar.gz). i had to use this for /dev/mixer functionality, and i have no 
idea how the change would affect your situtation. if you have no other 
leads and dont use this build of the driver already, it might be worth a 
shot
