IIRC, those oscs are 1V/octave, like the old analog synths. Whereas, many of the other oscs want some kind of linear signal. I don't remember the details though. They work fine in AMS. I vaguely remember there being a LADPSA plugin somewhere that converts from non-1V/octave to 1V/octave too. Might want to try that.
