Well, the XBMC wiki seems to have been updated with to point to the new
Takashi Iwai's development alsa code now.  I just installed the patch on my
machine and it seems to work pretty well.  Still trying to get direct ac3 to
work, though.   Also, I see 2 hdmi devices from the card: hw:1,3 and
hw:1,7.  I'm still messing around with the setup, though.
