We don't have documentation on the routing layout of the DSP24 so it's not
yet "supported". There is a chance the current ALSA ice1712 driver will
work "out of the box" or with minimal tweaking.

OSS doesnt have any of the functions required for modern multichannel
cards. Right now ALSA is the only answer for e.g. RME hammerfall,
professional multitracking, and for real iec958 support.
