Hi,
I am struggling with setting up the alsa dmixer with the M-Audio
Audiophile USB sound card. The card works well (even better now since
alsa 1.0.11rc4/linux 2.6.17rc1) but only one application can access it
at the same time. Internet search gives a lots of results for
asound.conf dmix configurations (and that it should work out of the box
with recent alsa versions) but the M-Audio seems to be special, as
always. So,
1. Is this a stupid question? (I am a newbie...)
Latest alsa should do it for you automagically.
3. Can jackd and simple alsa apps use the soundcard at the same time
with dmix (theoretically, if it would work)?
Technically it should work but there are better ways. Like setting alsa
to use jack output. It may be possible to have it dmix to jack output
but I haven't tried that.
cheers.
