I would call that "Audio Hardware Emulation" instead of "Overall Audio 
frontends".

And probably it would make sense to further subdivide this section into the 
individual hardware models (Sound Blaster, Adlib, PC Speaker, VIA AC97, ...), 
similar to patch 3. Could be split subsequently as well of course.

Likewise I would call this section "Shared/common QEMU audio library/
subsystem" or something like that instead of "Overall Audio backends".
