btw, i'm using debian's alsa-source 0.9+0beta10-6 package.

what makes me wonder is:
- at boot time, the BIOS says it initializes the plug and play cards
  and detects the sound card, it prints its name.
- but the linux ISA PNP does not seem to detect it:
  Mar 30 19:20:13 moonbow kernel: isapnp: Scanning for PnP cards...
  Mar 30 19:20:13 moonbow kernel: isapnp: No Plug & Play device found
- nor does the soundcard driver:
  Mar 30 19:20:18 moonbow kernel: ALSA card-ad1816a.c:348: no AD1816A based soundcards 
found.

i've tried to make some sense of the output of pnpdump(1) and added an
entry to snd_ad1816a_pnpids[], but it hasn't helped.
