Basically, we've got a problem where we think our processor is
bit-shifting the sample for some reason, and I was going to see if I
could either (i) un-bit-shift it (it looks like we're not actually
losing any data, the sound's just being multiplied by 2^4), or (ii)
reproduce the problem we see by bit-shifting the samples on a
known-good platform.

I know the drivers for our particular setup (UBC1400 codec/i.MX25
processor) are under sound/arm, but I'm not sure if there's anything
in there that actually sees the samples as they come through.


Would I be able to access samples quite early on in the generic AC'97
code (I don't know where that is, either, but it would be interesting
to see, at least :p)

Thanks,
