I cannot provide a helpful answer to your question.
But,
These guys have written what I understand to be pretty good sound drivers
for many cards, including the Live, Audigy, and Audigy2 cards:

The demo works for 3 hours at a stint, and the budget version is 20
bucks. I have no personal experience with them, yet.

I'm with you, though. I would like to have a first-party SBLive 
driver that let's me use all the features I paid for in the card. Hell, 
I'd settle for a working headphone jack (on the LiveDrive).
