Is there any card/driver combination that does support higher resolutions?
The azalia manpage (I have a Intel 82801GB HD Audio actually) says in BUGS:
There is no way to use 20-bit or 24-bit precision
because of a limitation of the MI audio framework.
Is "the MI audio framework" the same thing that's described in audio(4)?
