I had the same problem with a SB card as well.  My app is a real-time
audio verification (comaparison) tool.  With the SoundBlaster card
(Audigy) wacky things would happen like a sudden stop in the
recording, unless I turned off hardware acceleration.  I did the full
driver/BIOS update thing and had no change.  Another audio card using
a Yamaha chipset worked just fine (with full HW acceleration), as did
a Turtle beach Aureal Vortex card.  Needless to say, I am very
disappointed in Creative!

Sorry if it's not any help, I'd like a solution as well!

I do have one question though, is there a way to programmatically turn
off HW acceleration for a particular audio device?
