Well, that's the clue right there.  To get all the ports working for
recording or playback on my Audigy2 platinum (emu10k1 cvs driver), I found
I had to use different mixers,  emuctl, etc.  aumix worked for most things,
but I had to use kmix for others.  Emuctl (emu10k1 tools) always you to
route the sound pathways on the card.  You may find you need to get a
patched mixer for your particular driver.
