Hi,
   I wanted to remind people that the version of Alsa that I am using is
0.9.6, but the hdsp 9652 driver is not the one in CVS. It's the one Thomas
developed remotely at his place and has been tested on my machine and
possibly a few others. I think a patch was supplied to asla-devel but I'm
not sure about that. To the best of my knowledge Thomas didn't do any
editing on the MIDI side of things, but we didn't talk about that level of
detail much.

   I just didn't want anyone to be surprised later if it turns out it has
something to do with the audio side of the hdsp 9652 driver.
