Depending on your ALSA version there might be some issues with not
getting sound. This bug was introduced into 1.0.15 and is now fixed to
my knowledge. There was a fix some time ago on the alsa-dev list, if I
recall it correctly. You might want to have a look into the archives of
alsa-dev and alsa-user, the short discussion was less than three months
ago.
I must admin I do not know the correspondance between ALSA versions and the kernel
versions they get bundled with but I recently had an issue with kernel version 2.6.24.
hdspmixer showned signal on the output but the actual output was silent. Rolling back to
kernel version 2.6.23.12 fixed the problem. All kernel versions I have tried prior to
2.6.24 have worked flawlessly with it.
I have not yet had occasion to use the MIDI features but the audio has worked very well
and sounds very good.

Steve.
