26 sounds pretty good, I would like to enable even 6 :)
Problem is, that those channels are in 1 usb feature unit and in 1 output
terminal.
Linux usb audio kernel driver simply says:
if (state->nrchannels > 2)
printk(KERN_WARNING "usbaudio: feature unit %u: OSS mixer
interface does not support more than 2 channels\n", ftr[3]);
I have been trying to find easy way around this, but no.
Any ideas?
(Has anyone started the ALSA usb project yet?)
