I checked the status word and it changed after the timeout elapsed.

However, the IRQ is not forwarded as you wrote. The same seems true
for more drivers and they should be checked:

ad1816a
als100
azt2320
dt019x
opti92x-ad1848
sc6000

All of them create the OPL3 timers but none of them
calls the snd_opl3_interrupt (do acknowledge timer
interrupt). The only driver which does it is the opl3sa2.

I will test the ad1816a, opti93x and the sc6000. If the
interrupt is not received I will prepare patches to
remove the OPL3 timers.

Regards,
Krzysztof
