Actually, I just dug up some reports and rev98 actually is known not
to work right with the ALSA driver.  RME has not given us the
necessary information to fix it, but they do have the older firmware
which you can downgrade from windows.  The following is direct link to
the older version firmware updater that contains the 151 (or rev97 in
linux hex-speak) for the hdsp9632.
