I have a sound blaster live 5.1 and I'm using SuSE 8.2.

This is the first linux distro that I could actually get the digital output to work with this card.

My problem:

When using an audio/video program, I can't control the sound from within the program.
I have to use the speaker controls.

Its not a big deal, but just a tad annoying.

I'm using Boston speakers with a sub (not sure of the exact make and model).

Below is the modules loaded...

Anyone know why I'm having this problem?
Anyone else use the same card? How did you config it?

Thanks in advance!
