[root at localhost root]# hdsploader
hdsploader - firmware loader for RME Hammerfall DSP cards
Looking for HDSP + Multiface or Digiface cards :
Card 0 : RME Hammerfall DSP at 0x40800000, irq 11
Upload firmware for card hw:0
Firmware uploaded for card hw:0
Card 1 : SiS SI7012 at 0xa800, irq 11

why are the twice cards on the same irq ?

[root at localhost root]# xmms

What's the problem with PCM ?

[root at localhost root]# aplay 
/home/gryphius/bordel/1090492216_everybodyclip.wav
Playing WAVE '/home/gryphius/bordel/1090492216_everybodyclip.wav' : 
Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz, Stereo

it's ok, i hear sound but it make a little saturation in the hdsp mixer 
why ?
