Greetings!
I just got hold of an M-Audio Revolution 7.1 and decided to start playing around with it. I've got the latest CVS of ALSA and AlsaPlayer installed and I can successfully get sound of the card.
I'm having some trouble, however. I read that the Revolution has a pure 24/192 signal path from start to finish, and that madplay can take advantage of this. I tried running madplay with the '--bit-depth=24' option but it told me that the card couldn't handle 24 bit output, and that it was dropping back to 16. Did I miss something?
