Let me reiterate, are you certain that the SB16 driver is installed on the
guest at all? I am not familiar with XP, but guess you should install it
manually.

The web page hosting the patch tells about QEMU_AUDIO_DRV pretty bluntly.

You are most certainly running ALSA (with OSS emulation).

Again, if XP can not recognize SB or driver is not installed at all, no
amount of tweaking of your host audio will do much good. (Partly it's
mistake on my part to ask you to try different host audio drivers, sorry,
i wasn't reading your original message careful enough)
