Another (perhaps simpler) alternative might be to try to get it to
work in SB emulation mode.

I've managed to get it to probe as a SoundBlaster (just by adding
pci_write_config(dev, 0x41, 0x10, 1) to the probe code in my mixer
driver):

sbc0: <Soundblaster Pro> at port 0x220-0x22f irq 5 drq 1 on isa0

However, it doesn't work (the interfaces seem to work, but the mixer
settings don't affect anything and playback doesn't get anywhere) and
I still haven't had time to look at it properly (and don't expect to
any time soon).
