Oh, is that because of the driver? Here was me wondering what *I* was
doing wrong. :-)
I have the LiveDrive breakout panel, with a recent CVS version of ALSA,
and I'm impressed. I don't think there's much difference in sound
quality, but I do get to access things like the 3D enhancement
featurette, and everything I've tried on the LiveDrive works perfectly,
but I'm yet to plug in any MIDI or digital devices.
Cheers,
