I fired up http://www.alsa-project.org/, fed 'ensoniq' into the soundcard list and got this: http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/index.php?vendor=vendor-Ensoniq#matrix

From your lspci output:

There she is! hmm. Now, you said that you had a creative labs soundblaster in windows. Do you have more than one card in your machine? I doubt it, but it's possible, and if so, you may have your speakers plugged into the other one. That's a bit of a long-shot.
I only recently got my soundcard setup (http://jon.dowland.name/log/geek/linux/debian/problems/). Try installing 'alsaconf'?
