I'm finding that the CMI8738 soundcard driver is kind of lacking in a few
respects (as of 4.6-RELEASE):

- No MIDI support
  (If I remember correctly, this is marked "TODO" in the driver code)
- Sketchy Duplex support
  (Even after `sysctl hw.snd.pcm0.vchans=4`)
  Works somewhat in ecasound, not all all in audacity.

Does anyone know if this has improved in 4.7, the upcoming 4.8, or 5.0?

Or am I wrong, and this stuff all works, I'm just setup badly?

`cat /dev/sndstat`

FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm)
Installed devices:
pcm0: <CMedia CMI8738> at io 0xb000 irq 10 (1p/1r/4v channels duplex)

Thanks for your time!
