There are several different versions of the SB Live.
My SB Live rev06 is not a SB Live 5.1, so it has 2 audio stereo output 
jacks, one for front, one for rear, and then a spdif jack. The spdif 
jack is not switchable between analogue and digital. It is fixed at digital.

Maybe the rev07 card is a SB Live 5.1, which has a switchable 
digital/analogue spdif jack, so it can output on 3 analogue stereo 
jacks, or with a switch (maybe GPOUT) it changes the 3rd analogue out 
jack into an spdif digital only jack.

Does this info help at all?
