Yes, an improved version of the extensions for the dbdma API is
already in thanks to Nathan.

Actually I have split the "aoa.c" file in different files for the
different audio controllers, intended to go into the
"sys/dev/sound/macio" directory, which is where all the other sound
drivers for other platforms reside, instead of "sys/powerpc/powermac".
The new, splitted version of the driver will of course include the fix :-) .

It also works with ATAPI drives if the kernel is compiled with
ATAPI/CAM support -- just like the "cdrecord" utility.
