I don't what package you've installed but your post prompted me to try 
Mandrake's emu10k1-tools package.  I edited /etc/emu10k1.conf but couldn't 
get sound to work (just a buzzing noise in the centre speaker).

My sound card is a Creative SBLive! 5.1.  Using mdk 9.0 but with the 
enterprise kernel which is sometimes very different to the standard kernel 
so the emu10k1-tools package may work for you in any case.

So I've gone back my original setup which is using a tarbal downloaded from 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/emu10k1 .  Just checked that site and see 
that a newer release is available (emu10k1-v0.20a.tar.bz2) - I'm still 
using emu10k1-v0.18-2.tar.gz.  Will upgrade today.

Download emu10k1-v0.20a.tar.bz2 and follow the instructions in the README.  
Don't forget to edit /usr/local/etc/emu10k1.conf (if thats where they still 
put it in the newer version).  I find that simply modprobing doesn't get it 
working and I'm not sure what else to do but reboot which definitely gets 
it going.  Rebooting sucks, I know, but...

I've never been able to get "digital" sound working so I use analog.  Email 
me direct if you have problems editing the conf file and I'll send you my 
one.

I've been using these packages since mdk 8.0 and have had no problems 
getting all 5 speakers going and have the bass & treble controls in aumix, 
kmix, etc.
