Hm, seems so. np so far, but having finished this build it will not get 
some success so far. My expectation.

I see on all ports the activity I do, means, I see when I plugin/out a 
jack, on all three.
Enabled outputs: Headphones/Speaker in the order I plug unplug the piece.
If I cat something to /dev/dsp I even see the aoa_chan_setblocksize 
msg's on stdout.

Thanks to your patience,
Andreas
