I know you don't want to implement a "hack" for portability reasons, but if anyone else is interested in pursuing this I think it would be possible (though probably not very easy, and may or may not always work depending on specific circumstances).

Though a USB sound system driver has yet to even be started, I was thinking that it will probably be necessary (or at least desirable) to create a BLASTER environment variable in this fashion.
