Creative bought Ensoniq.  Ensoniq documentation of their hardware is still 
available.  Creative originated hardware is not.

Ensoniq's AudioPCI = Creative SoundBlaster PCI 64 or 128; 1370 chipset
Creative Ensoniq AudioPCI = Creative SoundBlaster PCI 32; 1371 chipset
                            compliant with AC '97 standard

1370 chipset only is supported by pcm0 driver in the kernel.
OSS supports both 1370 and 1371.
