No, 0dBu is 0.775V and +4dBu is 1.23Vrms which is close to the 
specified input of the SB.
Looks like it's nominal +4dBu input, which would explain everything.

Agreed; in an earlier message I did suggest conversion in the digital
domain, but amplifying the analog signal is certainly a better solution,
if more expensive.
