There is a lot of misunderstanding regarding the 'Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack' mixer element. Certain Sigmatel codecs require this element to be UNmuted to have audible analog audio from the speaker jack. An increasing number of Sigmatel codecs require this element to be muted to have audible analog audio from the speaker jack. I'm happy to recommend that the initscript be changed to mute the above element, but we WILL cause a regression for people whose codecs require the element to be muted.
Again, this issue is intractable, well documented, and well hinted in various avenues. Regardless which approach is chosen, someone is going to be "left in the cold".
