Note that you do not need to run hdsploader with the HDSP9652 card.
Note too that one wouldn't need superuser privileges for the tool to
work, anyway.

This looks good to me.

The way the matrix mixer is handled for the HDSP9652 series differs from
the cardbus/pci Digiface/Multiface. It looks to me like the mixer offset
from the iobase is wrong. This could explain both the absence of sound
and the locks. I need to put a hand on a HDSP9652 card to investigate
this.
