Thanks for the suggestion.  I looked into that kernel driver, but it's
not a full solution to the problem.  I have an idea for writing a little
ALSA program (in userspace) that will accept arbitrary bytes as input,
and feed it into the ALSA stack, so I'll work on that.  If I am
successful in getting that done, then it will be a really clean solution
to this problem.
