Ok. So the "high channel count" part is fixed with 6.0.

The "non interleaved access" was never a problem (emulated by alsa plug
layer).

Tsched=0 workarounds...should in general be fixed in ALSA rather than
PulseAudio. Raymond's patch is probably correct but I'm not qualified to
review it. Raymond, could you turn the patch into a proper commit (git
commit -s ) and then send it upstream on the alsa-devel mailinglist
(using git send-email or git format-patch)? Thanks.
