Usually, the tape out always has something and there's a "monitor"
button to tell the unit to play what's coming back on the tape-in
(otherwise it plays the source straight out).

But, as Dave says, sometimes the tape-out doesn't work this way, in
which case you'll probably have to go from the pre-amp out to the
line-in on your audigy card.
