Can you reproduce this consistently? This is a known bug but no one has
been able to find a good test case.

Yeah the 24 bit SBLive card is completely different and a POS IMHO. The
Audigy2 is a 24 bit card that retains the good parts of the SBLive (hw
mixing, DSP, wavetable). But it's more expensive. And the 24/96 is not
yet supported in Linux (though it should be soon).
