This soundcard has worked with pcm0 since before 3.2-RELEASE, although I must admit that mine is not in a laptop. Also I do have to use the synth volume controls to change the CD volume. I've not actually tried this with -stable yet, but it was never a big problem - although midi might be nice if OSS does that. [btw, I got about half way into trying to get the driver to understand the mixer better a while back, but Yamaha never did send me the chipset specs they promised so I spent my time at work instead =( ] Steve Roome Hopefully that was of some use..
