I'm really sorry, but you've probably noted that I used ??rear?? (the
notes of interrogation are really there), because I really don't know how
are SB Live 5.1 cards physically connected. I own SB Live 1024 and 512.

Sure, it can be possible. As far as I know these steps should be done:
amixer set Center 100%
amixer set LFE 100%
amixer set Surround 100%
aplay -D center_lfe <filename.wav>
If it doesn't work, please, send me output from 'amixer scontrols'.
I could be wrong, but it appears that the Center/LFE jack is connected to
the surround DAC of the AC'97 codec (that's why the Surround control
belonging to the AC'97 codec should be modified).

They're described in the latest document.
