So, for a distribution kernel, I guess that, once nobody complains

No, please not! At least on my powerbook5,8 snd-aoa works way better
than snd-powerpc. And AFAIK this is true for all newer Powerbooks. It
may be that snd-powermac is the only option for some of the older Apple
powerpc based hardware. But please only enable it for devices that are
not supported by snd-aoa.
Completely agree with that. snd-aoa was made for newer Macs AFAIK, and
it works very well here. The one that cause problem here is a
powermac3,3
despite the thread name, the original sound problem was in a
PowerBook3,3
as Risto Suominen pointed out in a previous post.
(just to clearify)
which is an old model, and which is not supported by snd-aoa
according to http://johannes.sipsolutions.net/Projects/snd-aoa
I am CC'ing Johannes, he may help us solve that long standing problem.
