I installed 4.2-RELEASE (now updated to stable) about 4 or 5 days ago, on a
computer with a VIA sound chip (the supported one).  The sound works, but
with a lot of hissing.  I didn't know if this was a working driver before,
but, basically, this is a "me, too, I'm having the same problem with pcm".
