Orlando Bassotto, one of the Audigy code submitters, has taken on the task of 
combining the contributions.  The latest patch is available at:

	http://mad.ieo-research.it/freebsd/drivers/emu10k1/

If you have the h/w, I'm sure he'd appreciate testers and feedback.  This h/w 
really requires some architectural enhancements in the sound driver framework 
to support audio stream routing and the mixer.  We don't have those yet, but 
cg is working on designs for newpcm2 that should address this (it's pretty 
hard with the OSS mixer interface).

It would be good to have at least basic pcm support for the audigy in the tree 
for the upcoming 5.1 fork (assuming it's not too high risk).
