It is supported by /usr/ports/audio/oss in full duplex mode. I am using
it. It would be really nice to add support for a low end cards like that
into the kernel but I am not a developer. I think I saw somewhere that
there was something strange about that particular card. OSS for a long
time could not support it in full-duplex mode necessary for VoIP.
