What are those differences?
The client numbering scheme was reorganized in
ALSA 1.0.11rc1 because
there were too many unused reserved numbers and not enough free
numbers for more than eight cards.
Incidentally this unannounced change broke Rosegarden 1.0. Rosegarden
relies on the client numbers to determine whether a port is system,
hardware or software -- there are significant functional differences
between the types of port, and I see no other way to find out which type a port
is -- if there is
one, I'd dearly like to know.
