If the GPL'ed version of OSS works, then we can see the driver code.
Could you check whether it works?  If we have a reference source, it
will be greatly helpful to debug.

Well, the problem is another one - the lack of the hardware
information such as datasheet.  The codec chip itself is known but the
connection of the chip is unknown.  This is what M-audio knows at
best.  Or you can track the pin connections on your board...

Above all, the most missing thing for me is the time.  I'm willing to
help you but have likely too little time.  I hope someone else could
help more intensively...
