Darn.

I don't know anything about this driver (you said you're using the one
from the audio/emu10kx port), but there seem to be a bunch of knobs to
play with. One is the analog/digital mode, which may be related (as I
mentioned before, for a different reason, driving the audio in digital
mode may work for you.
You could also try the native emu10k1 driver, which is supposed to
handle the EMU10K2 and EMU10K3 chipset-based Audigy 2 cards. You
didn't mention if you'd done that before. [You also didn't mention
which version of FreeBSD you're running, which may turn out to be
relevant.]
Be well.
