Bad volume control config when Sound Blaster Live 24-bit is used

Bug Description

When you install Ubuntu Dapper or Edgy on a system which have a Creative Sound Blaster Live! 24-bit, the volume control on the GNOME panel comes pre-configured to set the volume of center/LFE channel, only used on 5.1 setups, when it should control the front L/R channel.

It's easy to resolve (going to volume control settings and modifying it), but it should be correctly preconfigured, as is with other sound cards.

I've tested it on Dapper 6.06, 6.06.1 and Edgy Beta.
