If users are switching their cables around and can actually hear the

What you say above is certainly not valid for all
SB Live, Audigy and
Audigy 2 sound cards. The snd-emu10k1 driver works for all those.
I think this might only apply to SBLives and not Audigy/Audigy2. Still,
it's harmless if the front and rear codecs are of similar quality. And
there are definitely a lot of cards where the rear codec is better.
Many of the people who request it dual boot and use the kX driver under
Windows so jsut don't want to have to switch their speaker cables
around.
