At least under Windows 98 2 identical sound cards don't seem to work (or at 
least I can't make it so).  I now have a Sound Blaster AudioPCI and a Creative 
Sound Blaster 16 Plug and Play in the system, and both working wtih MMTTY.

Device ID -1 and 0 are still the main soundcard (Sound Blaster AudioPCI) but 
Device ID 1 is the Sound Blaster 16 Plug and Play.

That was an interesting ride!
