Creating a surround51 device with a route plugin is trivial.

Selecting device-specific device definitions can be done with a new
card_shortname configuration function and lots of indirections.

The biggest problem is dmix.  I do no want to impose some default sample
rate/format on unknown devices because this would break most USB
headsets or other unusual devices.  I think the best solution would be
to add an option to dmix to automatically select some suitable sample
format when it's first opened.


Regards,
Clemens
