Sound was dropped from the 2.0 feature set.  We've actually done a
bunch of work on it, but 2.0 was just slipping too much for us to
continue the sound work.

I don't know alot about soundcards right now, but I'd guess that the
GU will be supported.  However, that is only a guess.  Another guess
is that sound will be in 2.1, 2.2 or 2.3.  Another feature that should
appear fairly soon after 2.0 is out is serial port support.
