Windows 7: COD WAW + Xtreme Music

Whenever I run Creative console in Gamer mode, WAW hangs when closing down. The Creative dsxx files seem to be hanging when the game is shutting down. I'm using the latest official versions of the driver, conole changer and ALChemy. All other games seem to close fine when in Gamer mode. It's only WAW so far.

When I use Entertainment mode, WAW shuts down normally. I get 3d positional sound with both modes, but Gamer mode sounds a tad better.

Has anyone found a work around for this?

The obvious is to run WAW in Entertainment mode, but I'd like to try to get WAW to run in gamer mode without crashing on exit. I have resorted to using Task Manager to closae WAW when running Gamer mode, but that is as good as crahing out of it.
