I suspect that this card is indeed not supported by hdspmixer at this
time and would likely require some work by Thomas Charbonnel. You
couldn't be in better hands when he gets going.
In the meantime, if this card is accurately supported by the driver
you've loaded (it may not be...) then you could try some set of amixer
commands to attempt to set levels and routing.
If you're early experiences are anything like my HDSP 9652 experiences a
year ago then I would suggest trying to record before you try playing
back. The reason for this is that input channels either do or don't make
it in and you can more quickly tell if the amixer commands are
performing as you wish. On the output side you have to not only set
levels, but you also have to set routing. That makes getting output from
the RME cards more difficult than getting input.
Once you can correctly record you may (or may not) have enough info to
get the output side going.
Good luck! (You're gonna need it!) ;-)
With best regards,
Mark
