[alsa-devel] loading mixer control values from a different file when opening an device

Hi All, i'm using asound.conf file to define several devices where each one is configuring my sound device differently changing route, setting different volumes and etc)

i would have like to load setting from a different file only when accessing the a specific device - something like this:

pcm.MyDevice { type hooks slave.pcm { type hw device 0 }

<i would like to place here something which will "func load" from another file>

hooks.0 { type ctl_elems hook_args [

]

}

so when someone will playback MyDevice it will call also hooks from the other file

but i can't make it work, tried to use the alsa.conf as example - any example will be highly appreciated
