You do have to use the emu10kl module. I was eventually able to get the sound working, but the Mike and Line-In inputs aren't supported by the driver (yet). It took me a while to figure out how to disable the on-board sound for my Soyo motherboard. There's one BIOS setting under "integrated peripherals" to disable "legacy sound card" , but the built in sound (AC'97) was still there until I found the other sound card setting in the "CPU/clock" page. Some of the Linux sound applications wanted to use the first "sound card", not the SoundBlaster.
