actually, you're not.

 a careful reading of the docs reveals:

 type ladspa		# LADSPA plugin PCM
  slave STR		# Slave name (see pcm_slave)
  path STR		# Path or paths (delimited with ':')
  plugins | playback_plugins | capture_plugins {

        [ ... ]

note the 3 choices for the line that might start "plugins" ...
