I don't think that's a Creative extension, it is probably:

HTML Help Compiled Help File (Microsoft).

It doesn't look like you have the Creative stuff loaded from the above, it 
probably should look more like:

Also in my modprobe.conf I have the following rather than what you have:

remove snd-emu10k1 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; 
/sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-emu10k1
alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1
options snd-card-0 index=0

(the first two lines are all on ONE line in the file)

I am running FC3 and did nothing more than allow the system to configure it once 
   I rebooted after installed my Audigy card.  I don't have the 'value' model, I 
don't recall which one I do have.   From what you have listed it looks like the 
system is still seeing the old (onboard?) settings.  Did you turn them off in 
the BIOS after installing the Audigy?
