I don't have an Audigy 2 ZS, so unless someone donates one, I can't help 
you there.

Can you post to a web site your soundfonts file, and instructions on how 
to use them with the creative cards, I might be able to help.

I have a cheepo Audigy 2 (old version) that I might be able to reproduce 
your problems on.

I don't work with MIDI much, which is why I have not added MIDI support 
to the Audigy LS driver at the moment.

Cheers

James
