Purpose
-------

The purpose of this device is to make fully compatibles with MorphOS all the
programs written in the past using the native audio.device which was thought
to interact with the hardware audio chips of the old 68k Amigas. This PPC
enhanced version of the audio.device redirects the commands to the AHI device
allowing to use the last generation of sound boards supported by the ahi
system.

The device foresees all the audio.device's original commands: CMD_CLEAR,
CMD_FLUSH, CMD_READ, CMD_RESET, CMD_START, CMD_STOP, CMD_UPDATE, CMD_WRITE,
ADCMD_ALLOCATE, ADCMD_FINISH, ADCMD_FREE, ADCMD_LOCK, ADCMD_PERVOL,
ADCMD_SETPREC and ADCMD_WAITCYCLE.
