Ah, thanks a lot for your asoundrc file. I was on the right track with
my dmix setup, but I didn't think about the fact that the JACK loopback
side for simultaneous playback needed format and rate specifications. So
basically it goes dmix -> dsnoop for one direction and dsnoop -> dmix
for the other (in case that there are multiple applications that
simultaneously recording via the ALSA layer). Your setup doesn't cover
the last part, but I grant it's a pathological case since nothing comes
to mind (maybe Mumble and Skype simultaneously for whatever reason).
Silly: yes. But if I want to use Flashplayer and
Skype at the same
time and don't want to use different soundcards (quite a recording
hassle for podcast production, for example) and use a decent audio
interface with a good microphone, I'm stuck with this choice.
Here is what I'm using very successfully to run kde, skype and some
games over jack/hdsp instead of the built in intel-hda. It was written
by falktx, of kxstudio fame.
It comes in three parts:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/879835/jacklib.py
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/879835/aloop-daemon.py
It actually makes audio on my system a dream to work with, and allows
me to route it around as I wish. One could conceivably create even
more loopback devices for specific apps, but this has worked great so
far.
