[LAU] Reporting bugs by a strange bugtracker

[Ralf Mardorf]

To be fair this is the first really idiotic bugtracker I'm subscribed
to, I experienced other bugtrackers as intuitive usable.

Even on https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/bugtrackers/alsa-mantis is the
dead link to https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/ .

Wow, I followed the instruction on the quick and tried to add _not_ to
modify a bug report and got this:

Subject: 	snd_hdsp ADAT channels 3 to 8 can't be routed to jackd

On Linux (ALSA 1.0.25, kernel 3.6.5-rt14, Ubuntu 12.10 amd64) there are
only ADAT channel 1 and 2 available by jackd, when using snd_hdsp for a
RME HDSPe AIO sound card, so I tested the card on FreeBSD 9.1 amd64
using the FreeBSD driver, there without TotalMix, but all 8 ADAT
channels are working.
