What small projects would you suggest to a novice with the ALSA kernel. The aim is to develop a familiarity with the ALSA kernel source code, and also to submit it for academic purposes.

A good place to start is getting a good handle on what the phrase "the ALSA kernel" even means.

Basically looking for kernel space audio subsystem projects rather than its user-space library(alsa-lib) and utilities(alsa-utils).

There's the Linux kernel, a small corner of which is the ALSA subsystem for sound.
