This is a known problem. Your hardware includes an SB compatibility mode
and the soundblaster driver sees it first. I would like to be able to use
the priority probing system to allow both drivers to take a look at the
hardware but there is a bit more work to be done before that can happen.

As a gross hack, you could put 'return ENXIO' at the start of sb_probe().
