No sound in Windows 98 (but other OSes are okay)

Hi, all.

So I have a tri-boot system with Windows XP Home, Ubuntu Feisty and Windows 98 FE. 
 My SoundBlaster Live! Value works fine in XP and Ubuntu, but I'm getting nothing 
out of Windows 98.

Yet the Volume Control bar shows sound being registered.  Here's a picture of what 
I mean:

Control panel tells me the driver is working properly with no conflicts, and the 
device selection shows SB Live! E800, which seems to be the correct setting.

But no sound.

Can anyone help?   If so, thanks in advance!
