Good day.
I'm out of touch of with alsa -- but should dmix/dsnoop still be enabled by default on hardware that doesn't do hardware mixing?
It seems it isn't on my Intel ICH4:
$ cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [ICH5 ]: ICH4 - Intel ICH5 Intel ICH5 with AD1980 at irq 17 1 [SAA7134 ]: SAA7134 - SAA7134 saa7134[0] at 0xe8200000 irq 22
I believe that it should be from /usr/share/alsa/cards/ICH4.conf, but I don't get mixing on this setup when using the "default" pcm...
(which I may not mind at that much, but I was looking at some other sound-related problem and this has me rather confused)
This is arch linux, with alsa-lib, -plugins and -utils 1.0.26 installed, using kernel 3.6.11-1-ARCH (ie, standard).
