I haven't check his in a while, but many of the patches running around
are a complete rewrite of the emu10k driver.  Not being a sound device
driver guy, I personally am not willing to commit a complete rewrite.  I
am willing to champion and commit patches that keep to the existing driver
and only adds Audgy2 support.  Unfortunately those in-the-know that are
writing Audgy2 support aren't keeping to this restriction.  If my posted
patches were known to work on SB Live! 128, I'd commit them as I can
follow them enough to understand the changes.
