Just this week, I started fooling around with mythtv, and was trying a 
SBLive. I think I convinced myself that it would work easiest and best 
with the kernel drivers (OSS), emu-tools 
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/emu10k1), and smixer 
(http://centerclick.org/programs/smixer/).

I guess I should mention that it seemed okay with the audio connected to 
either of the internal input connectors AUX or CD, but I didn't try it 
with the LINE input on the rear. Also, I had headphones hooked up to 
OUT1 (green) on the rear. I can't see why it wouldn't work correctly 
with any of the inputs or outputs if you have things set up correctly 
through the emu-tools and smixer.

If you need more details, I can get my notes off the other computer. Let 
me know.
