As far as I know I'm the only one so far. ;) I'm supposed to be working
on the rest of the support but haven't had time to finish yet.

Hrm, dunno...it's been working fine here for a while.
Kernel 2.4.20-k7. ALSA 0.9.2-1. snd-via82xx module.

As far as I can discern from the (not so great) speakers in my TV, the
output is identical to the output from /dev/dsp. I'd definitely notice
if I was having problems of it being unsynched, but I'm not sure I'd
notice if the tone was slightly different.
Does using the ALSA support in other applications cause the same
problem with high pitches? E.g. compare "mpg123 -o alsa foo.mp3" with
"mpg123 -o oss foo.mp3".
