Your points are perfectly valid. I think the thing to do is to take
what I've started with and then give pointers off to pages that do
the same thing for other distro variations.

I agree that one soundcard is the simple case, it is probably the
most common. I'm not at all opposed to extending the documentation
to cover other cases.
