Well, I also have an audigy2, with a remote which works too. The only problem with it is that there is a delay from button press to being recognized which I'm pretty sure is a hardware limitation of the receiver. Do you by some chance have access to a machine with Media Center 2005 on it? Apparantly, the drivers are only included in MCE2005, but I would gander if you copy the files over to another XP machine - you could probably force the driver to work on a different machine. If so, I'd love to grab a copy of the drivers used for this remote in windows, to compare USB output and see what I can do to help the developer of this MCE2005 driver to fjix this issue.
