Hello! I build my BF533-EZKIT-based board (Blackfin processor development board) sound system on AD1386A sound. I use blackfin.uclinux.org distribution for it. One of my board's function is to play three different stereo sound streams simultaneously on it. What I done is choosing for AD1386 '3 stereos' option. After loading the kernel, my software is able to open pcm 3 times and plays sound properly, with no glitches or smth. The only missed functionality is that I can't specify the needed subdevice I want to play a stream on. I should have the possibility to play, f.e., mplayer stream on the 3rd stereo output while the 1st and the 2nd are not used. How can I do it?
You can pass three numbers to PCM arguments: card, device and subdevice. For example, the below will choose card = 0, device = 2, subdevice = 1, i.e. the secondary substream: % aplay -Dplughw:0,2,1
That's what I've done:
# arecord -c 2 -f dat -d 30 a.wav # aplay -Dplughw:0,0,0 a.wav ALSA sound/blackfin/ad1836.c:924: snd_ad1836_playback_open Playing WAVE 'aAwLvS A isnodu1n di/ biltaecEkdfai,nR/ta d8108 3z6 .tcr:o1

The problem seems different. I guess you can't run with 'plughw:0' as well? According to the message, the sample format isn't available although wrapped with plug layer. Did you install all alsa-lib plugins properly? If you don't pass any configure options, all plugins should be built.

Though ALSA shows that I have 3 subdevices it doesn't work with plughw:0,0,0..2. What else can I do to iinvestigate the problem?
Also that would be great if I can optionally play the same stream on all the outputs.
You'll need to define a PCM with multi plugin.
