I thought Android uses ALSA for audio, no?
It may, but there's absolutely no guarantee about that. It's not part of the
public APIs. Vendors may choose to do things differently. Some developers do
play with internal/private APIs, but it's heavily discouraged because likely to
break in a later Android release and/or on a specific device.
Actually, the next Android official audio API has great chances to be OpenSL ES
(which, after looking at the specs, looks like a nightmare to me).
