Perhaps you just need to run the "strip" tool to remove symbols from

I am really new to this. Could you tell me how to do that?
I haven't followed closely, but I believe that you are cross compiling. In other words, somewhere you found/built a copy of "gcc" that runs on your host and builds executables for your target.
In the same "place" that you found/built that copy of gcc, there should be some other tools, including "strip". Simply run: "strip libasound.so" or perhaps "strip libsalsa.so".
Thanks Scott:
That is exactly the case. I am developing an embedded system for an ARM platform. My host machine is a i686 type. I do in fact have a cross-tool called arm-linux-strip. I will work on that first with alsa then look at salsa. My problem with salsa is that for testing, I want to make sure I can use aplay and am having a hard time cross-compiling aplay with salsa.
Thanks.
