	That might be true.  For grins,  I compiled the btaudio drive
(directly into the kernel,  not modulized..).  At boot,  I see:

btaudio: driver version 0.7 loaded [digital+analog]
btaudio: Bt878 (rev 17) at 02:00.1, irq: 11, latency: 32, mmio: 0xe2001000
btaudio: using card config "default"
btaudio: registered device dsp0 [digital]
btaudio: registered device dsp1 [analog]
btaudio: registered device mixer0

	..and so on,  and so on.... (dsp2,dsp3,dsp4,etc).  I have yet to 
actually test it,  so this may be nothing.

	I'm only loading the bttv driver (which,  loads the tuner as
well..  but doesn't really do anything).  The card gets loaded like
such:

/sbin/modprobe bttv card=94,94,94,94 

	I'm running Slackware 9.0,  so this is in the /etc/rc.d/rc.modules. 

	It's been working fine for me.
