Do you mean Ensoniq Audio-PCI only? I have an Ensoniq SoundScape PnP (ISA).
These cards are notoriously hard to get working with anything else than MS
operating systems.

What I'd like to know is if someone is working on getting this card supported
with ALSA. I've spent my last week reverse-engineering the dos initialization
program so that I could get the card configured under Linux. Eventually, if
all goes well, I'd like to get the card working with ALSA.

If anyone else is doing this, please let me know so we don't do the same job
twice... :)

BTW, if anyone has any suggestions as to how to convince Ensoniq to let me have
a data sheet of the card (other than contacting their developer-relations man, 
which proved useless) I'd appreciate to hear from you... 

Thanks all,
Gabriel
