Title:
  Ubuntu 16.04 -  EMU10K1 / CT4832 lost ability to listen stereo on

Bug description:
  Hello,

  I have a problem - after one of the updates (sorry for being not precise - I 
can only track it back to the time I have been surely listening something on 
headphones - it has to be beginning of this year because last time I have been 
listening more on my SB Live for sure was in last one-two weeks of February 
2019 - I have suddenly lost "stereo" on my headphones.
  I have speakers connected to on-board sound card and headphones connected to 
SB Live Value for few years, so I did not mess with outputs or something - one 
day I changed Audacious output to SbLive in pavucontrol (as usually) and that 
time the sound was weirdly filtered.
  I have found that this must be "surround upmix" which I do not need and tried 
to disable it,
  enable-remixing = no and the same for "LFE remixing" in 
/etc/pulse/daemon.conf did not work.
  It does not matter what configuration I choose in pavucontrol- analog stereo 
duplex, "analog stereo output", "Analog surround 5.1" or 4.1 - for all "Analog 
output" scenarios the output is the same except for "mono" (no sound at all).
  I have tried do "skip" pulseaudio choosing "ALSA" output in Audacious + the 
alsa configuration for stereo but the upmix is still present.

  I have followed the old thread in Launchpad Answers:

  =====================================================
  Hello,

  i'm on ubuntu 16.04LTS (AMD64, with emu10k1 based soundcard) and since the 
last update I have similar problem - I have lost ability to listen stereo music 
on my Soundblaster Live Value (i use earphones).
  Even system sounds , web browser content and mp3 files are up-mixed.
  Few days ago it was no problem to choose "analag stereo output" in 
pavucontrol, now it seems that at this output have rear surround channel only 
(as I suppose, there is "stereo" but vocals are like heard from the other room 
and there is sometimes reverb as in the bathroom) :/.
  I had tried adding "set enable-remixing=no" in both /etc/pulse/daemon.conf 
and in the home directory configuration file without success.
  I have purged pulseaudio but with the ALSA there is the same problem, I have 
tried purging alsa and reinstalling without effect.
  So i thought that it can be emu10k1 driver specific, after digging in the 
network for solutions I have had tried adding 
"hint.emu10kx.0.multichannel_disabled " to the module configuration file 
without visible (or rather soundible ;) effect.
  I have tried to check EMU10K1 configuration with aweset, but it gives error 
message, so maybe the bad magic sits somewhere around?

  aweset
  /dev/sequencer: No such file or directory

  Once again - everything worked fine until the last update. I use
  xubuntu desktop as my machine is quite old, in despair I have
  installed unity to find the sound settings / speaker configuration etc
  and button to "disable all effects" as I have seen somewhere, but
  there were no such options.

  Help me Obi Wan Kenobi, you're my only hope...
  =====================================================

  I have next tried to follow the path from ubuntu sound troubleshooting
  guide, I have purged everything, installed back and now I'm  here
  again with this "upmix" on SBLive! Value.

  Thanks in advance for help :)
  Tom
