Takashi, thanks for these corrections! It'd be great to see yet more reports about successes, failures, suspected problems, etc, etc concerning different soundcards and chipsets on alsa-user (and other lists)! It's much easier to make purchasing decisions if you know that at least someone has had success with the desktop/laptop/soundcard model (and not just the chipset!) you're about to choose.

Ugh, not good.
