thanks for making those. this was exactly what I needed to get pulseaudio
working with my card again. I also agree that even though that my card (Hoontech
DSP 24) has 8/10 physical in/outs, those are essentially mono channels. The
surround mapping seem to be more harm that use to me. If a musician indeed wires
 6 3.5 jack outs somehow to his 5.1 amp, then its probably okay to uncomment
such mappings.

So what about making diegos patches the default?
