Summary: Support for new Prodigy 7.1 LT
Description:
Could you please try to add support for the Audiotrak Prodigy 7.1 LT, as
far as I am aware this card is essentially the same as the Produgy 7.1 but
low profile and with a couple of physical changes such as no digital in.

ALSA does not detect the card currently and when I try to load the
snd-1724 module it fails with an EEPROM error.

I have tried compiling a new kernel with the subdevice id for the Prodigy
7.1 in aureon.h changed to correspond to my device (as detailed here for
another card
http://linux.derkeiler.com/Newsgroups/comp.os.linux.hardware/2004-10/0340.html).
Alsa then detects the card and I can load modules and change volumes in
alsamixer but I haven't been able to produce any sound.

Hopefully support will be easy to add as this card is almost exactly the
same as the Prodigy 7.1 (and Aureon Space etc.) which already have
support.

I would be very happy to give any further information needed.

Well, I must admit that the sound is quite low, when the volume is set as
yours, however it ought to work.
The VU meter (Multi Track Peak) have detected audio on both front
channels.
Have you tried with Master, PCM and Front volumes set to max? Or even with
External Amplifier on? (Beware of this one though, the volume is increased
dramatically)

I have turned all the volumes up to max, put on external amplifier and
turned my speakers up to max, but if there is sound I can't hear it.
However I have noticed that some of the multi track peak levels keep
reseting theselves to zero, I don't know if this is normal or not.
