Well, I never said that the patch worked neither that I've applied it :-).
No, I just wrote it as I assumed, wrongly, that it was a possible solution to
submit before I set up a customized kernel configuration from the sources.
Sorry for this confusion.

Here's what `cat /proc/asound/cards` shows:

0 [Audigy2        ]: Audigy2 - Audigy 2 Value [Unknown]
                     Audigy 2 Value [Unknown] (rev.0, serial:0x10211102) at 0xd400, irq 12
1 [UART           ]: MPU-401 UART - MPU-401 UART
                     MPU-401 UART at 0x330, irq 5


Now.. what to do? Should I provide more information? What to expect?

Thanks for this clarification!
