Ok, I think aplay can do this.

I ran this command:

aplay -Dhw:0,0 -f S16_BE -M -r 48000 -c 2 15.raw

and I got this error:

aplay: set_params:852: Access type not available

so I modified my .info line and added those two macros.  When I run "aplay -M", 
it plays the file fine.

Does this mean that my one-line change has added mmap support to my driver, and 
dmix should now work?
