This I am aware of, but why has it the YMH0021 listed as supported 
device? Both mss/opl3sa2 mixers
work fine so it looks like everything works ok even tough the ad1848 
does not find the card. So
removing the YMH0021 entry from ad1848_isapnp_list[] should be save.

I would like to do this such that sndconfig can configure this card 
correctly.
Would anybody from RedHat (Bill or Alan) care to comment on this one? If 
you search this and other lists for
opl3sa2 you will see that this will make numerous newbees happy!
