I can tell the the VS-890 accepts 48kHz, which is what the SBLive output
is fixed at.  I don't know if you have to set the VS-890 sample rate and
if that's the problem.

You could try setting the SBLive to Digital Output Only mode and use a
minijack to RCA adapter (mono is OK, or for stereo use the left channel)
to try the orange digital jack on the SBLive's backplate.  If that works,
there would be some kind of issue with the LiveDrive, though probably just
setup or connections.
