Soundblaster may require the user to be a member of the audio group.

This sound card is NOT supported by alsa, and hence not directly supported by SUSE Linux ...
Creative X-FI

I have read that there is a beta (or alpha) version of an OSS driver for this card, and you could try searching and installing that driver
