Public bug reported:

On E-MU 0204 USB only 2-channel  mode worked. In this mode the second
pair of channels just duplicates the output of the first pair. E-MU
control panel under MS Windows allow to switch to 2-channel or 4-channel
mode. I ran USB sniffer, and it shows switch commands that the system
send to the device:

======================================
Host send 2 bytes to device:
Request:  0x1
Value:  0x400
Data:  01 01    //switching to 2-channel mode
Data:  01 02    //switching to 4-channel mode
======================================

Looks like in Ubuntu the card by default stay in 2-channel mode.
Switching to 4-channel mode apparently can be added to quirks.c
