alsa

I'm trying to configure alsa to work with the Chaintech AV-710 flashed to AudioTrak Prodigy 7.1 card, but no luck so far. Above is the thread I'm looking at now.

Edit: somehow, it just works now, but problem is it go through dmix so it is not bit perfect any more. To play music bit-perfect, I need to set the 'sound' in system->preferences to ICE1724 IEC958 (gstreamer?), and software that use the default system sound will go to the device directly.
