There's two things going on here - what we are doing and what people
would like to be able to do.  What we are doing is explicitly adding
devices, what people would like to do is infer the devices from the
board type.  Personally I'm totally happy with explicitly adding an
audio device, but not everyone is and I do understand where they're
coming from.
