[alsa-devel] [PATCH] Add async support to ioplug

[Takashi Iwai]

Lennart, you don't need lengthy explanation :)  I was already
convinced that async is evil; that's why I didn't implement it in
ioplug...

IIRC, the wine code used async, too.  I guess it was already
fixed, though.

It was just a 10 minutes test code, and I'm willing to drop it if
flash9 doesn't work with pulseaudio anyway.
