On that way, I'd like to inquiry something:
I have a card that works with the snd-cs46xx module.
With the OSS emulation (/dev/dsp), I can only output 2 channels, and the
other two must be sent to /dev/adsp. Is this intended? Would not it be
easier to make /dev/dsp allow receiving an ioctl setting 4 channels?
