The AES32 was on a box I built for a friend who lives about 4 hours away. He's 
not the most proficient with Linux, so I can try to test it out, but it will 
take a while. (I need to get him online so I can just access his machine via 
ssh)

Can I assume nothing changes in the ALSA API for that device? The utility 
created by Winfried Ritsch is the only reference code I have for accessing 
the matrix.

What kernel version is this driver revision slated for?

Thanks for working on this. It works, but really needs some love.
