Hello,

I have `Soundblaster Live! 24-bit External', too.
And I'm using it with FreeBSD 6-current/i386.
The current codes for USB audio devices have been patched along some PR's.

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=75274
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=75276

These patches may satisfy some your wishes.
But some USB devices have only few fixed sampling rates,
and ones of my Soundblaster Live! 24-bit External 
are 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, and 96 kHz.
If we play a sound source in another sampling rate,
some USB devices must play in a different sampling rate and out of pitch
with FreeBSD 4 or 5, and don't play with FreeBSD current.
So you had better use a userland mixer, e.g. EsounD or aRts.
