[PD] 4 outs on a cheap soundcard.

[d]

hi!
i've never used a cheap 5.1 soundcard for that purpose, but ionce tried 
to use 4 channels on a sb-pci 128 and the crosstalk between the two 
outlets was too big.
i ended up using 4 soundblastercards in that one machine for 8 
(mono-)channels, which worked well.
