The OP's original request:

http://lists.linuxaudio.org/pipermail/linux-audio-user/2017-March/107563.html

IMO the implicit master question is, what setup meets the OP's needs.
In most cases it makes no sense to run two sound servers in
combination, that are aimed for opposite purposes. Doing this usually
is self-defeating. Why starting from the premise that the OP's needs
fit to an unlikely corner case?
