Actually I think Julian has a point - I can't
find the doc anywhere
that says you output to the front speakers by opening the "front"
device and rear the "rear" device, that apps should open the
"default" PCM by default, that "hw:x" should only be used for
special
cases where direct hardware access is requires (like JACK), etc.
Only half a dozen people in the world know these things. And here you
are leaking them onto a public mailing list!
