Unfortunaly, I don't think there is much documentation for newpcm.  I've
had good results with my Creative SB PCI128.  It plays mp3 and cds (I
just checked that.) just fine.  I've hear that recording sortive works,
but there are some application support issues (vat and rat definalty
did't work a couple weeks ago and I haven't seen any commits indicating
that they should work).
