You could also do this with an emu10k1 or emu10k2 based card, anything
that has 6 channels of output (like the 5.1, or anything with the
LiveDrive, which gives a headphone out). These can be used as 6
independent mono channels, or 3 stereo streams. Plus this card
resamples in hardware which makes things a lot easier.
