Buck.. screw around with your EAX settings. I think what finally did it for me was enabling CMSS 3D.

Arkan.. here is why I use two soundcards. I've got three output mediums: Altec Lansing 5.1 (so-so), an Altec Lansing headset (pretty decent) and a pair of Sony MDR-V700DJ headphones.

I obviously want the 5.1 speakers on a good card for movies. I don't want to use the Sony headphones for gaming because the sounds can spike sometimes and I really don't want to blow them. So I have a switch on my good card and I just switch to the less expensive card for gaming which has my headset plugged in.

I could probably find another switch or something or other that would negate the need for two sound cards, but why bother. I have it working.
