*MANY* new users not familiar with -rt will read "not supported" as I
can't use the closed drivers with -rt. I've seen it many, many, many
times on my support ML already.

Your explanation now, after my reply, would have been a better initial post.

I would bet hard cash users of a -rt distro go to that bug tracker 1st,
and not to Ingo. I know. I receive the Ubuntu Studio bugs. ;)
