Some drivers works, but without multiple channels. My via-82xx, for
instance, when using standard FC1 sound drivers, keep gaim sounds on a
sort of queue when I hear music with XMMS. The music stops, every single
sound event from gaim is played in a row, and then xmms complains about
sound device being busy.

Its a via-82xx sound chip, and works perfectly with alsa.
