 It's linked to the IRQ detection.
You simply try all DMA channels and IRQ's until you find the one that works.
some psuedo code:
for dma=0 to 7 do
  for irq = 0 to 15 do
      play a 1 byte sample using DMA so that an irq is triggered.
      did our ISR go off?
      no : try next values
      yes : OK we have the settings!!
end.
you could also read the BLASTER Environment variable, or if you detect a SB 
16, read the software configuration registers.
Get the Creative SB developers pack from their website if you have internet 
access.
