There are many tricks for AVI file sync.
Try them:
-alsa/-noalsa
-bps/-nobps
-ni
And if you have a constant delay, you can correct ir:
-abs <value>
-delay <value>

I recommend the -abs option, it's for specify the audio buffer size.
Normally, you have to find it once, and it will works for all your files.
The value should be buffer size in bytes, usually 16384/32768/65536/.../
262144

It's autodetected for cards with working select(), but your hasn't...

What about SB Live!  ?
I have it, and it's great. It has ALSA driver too, but I'm using the
OSS-compatible (it is not OSS, because it is not developed by OSS,
it's opensource at creative.com).

It has digital in/out, but i don't know how is it supported and
how is it works, i'm using only the two analog output (one for
amplifier and one for my TV when watching divx)
