I'm not quite sure, what delay really is sufficient at the moment. It
worked without delay on my slow O2, but caused problems on faster
maschines. I want to figure out a good value and if it's just a
few microsecons simply use an udelay(). If a longer delay is needed
I'll switch over to something more kernel friendly.

they can't be shared and it's already done before any hardware init.
We only check, whether there is a sound module installed before
that.

I'll post an updated patch in a couple of minutes.

Thomas,
