This patch suppresses jitter on several Maestro cards in stereo mode

The patch is also incorporated in the *BSD drivers where I "ported" it from.
I am barely used to driver-development so please take a look (esp. the channel
parameters), nevertheless it completely works for me.

Without this patch most of the stereo audio gets out of sync and really
distorted (oss-emulation with mplayer at 48000khz worked somehow).

CCed to those listed in the .c file.

Added the alsa-devel list (and re-attached the patch). My TerraTec DMX (ESS Canyon3D, ES1970MS-3D) doesn't need this but doesn't seem to suffer from it either. Otherwise no idea about this.

Rene.
