hi steven, that hint helped here too!

i talked to victor lazzarini as  i met him at the LAC last weekend, and 
he told me that it is not necessary to compile csound with alsa in order 
to run csLADSPA, but i feel much more better when csound is compiled 
with alsa. i think that is just a 'religious' thing for me.

thanks for the effort and cheers,
doc
