Unfortunately the snd_envy* drivers are very bad supported. It lacks a lot of code to support the full card. I have had a card with a chip that was *supported* (but not) by the driver and I didn't manage to play any sound.. The current code of the driver is - I think - at early stages because of lot of commented code so I guess the maintainer didn't have too much time to spend on that.
