it could be that many ppl are using qjactcl and the latter may not be as

speculations. Rui could comment on qjackctl's ability to select an ALSA
device by name instead of the usual hw:n. Since I have not fiddled with
this for ages, I simply cannot remember.
clicking the ">" button, right to interface, input device or output device
entry fields (QjackCtl/Setup/Settings/Parameters) will show you a
drop-down menu with all available alsa_pcm devices you can choose freely
and intelligibly.
side note: it has come to my knowledge (more than 1yr ago) that ardour has
"borrowed" that feature, which in fact was "stolen" from alsa tools in
the
first place--all done cheerfully under the gpl umbrella :)
