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.
