Not in its current form.  It uses a major number from the test minors
range and private ioctls.  If someone takes the challange and brings
the module into a acceptable form we can talk about it.  With
"acceptable form" being one of:

  (1) Make it use some existing interface, the alsa mixer API is
      probably usable.
  (2) strip it down to do just the basic device initialiation, so you
      can at least hear something.
  (3) Get at least some official device assignment for it.

IMO (1) would be the best choice.  Patches welcome,
