Hi! DOS drivers for legacy soundblasters do exist (mainly ct-voice.drv) but they are used very very rarely because DOS software relies on the direct hardware access to soundlaster.

What you could try with SBEMU is some legacy utility for setting the soundblaster volume. (f.e. here.)

Then try not game but some music player with equalizer (like cubic player or "mpxplay -scs sbp"). Do the volume bars something do?
