I stand corrected. I noticed that after sending my email :(

The patch actually did not install the tstamp configuration option. I did add
the installation of the option all direct based plugins (dmix/dsnoop/dshare),
that with a global configuration option.

I did some testing and quickly found out some defaults for sw_params are
installed in pcm_params.c:_snd_pcm_hw_params_internal from a snd_pcm_hw_params
installation call.

Those defaults are defined in pcm_params.c:snd_pcm_sw_params_default which
tstamp value will break in the case of a plugin pipeline ending with already
running direct plugin.

It means that all calls to snd_pcm_sw_params done internally should have their
sw_params values investigated to see if they work with a plugin pipeline ending
with an already running direct plugin.

For the first case, in pcm_params.c:_snd_pcm_hw_params_internal, it seems that
"valid" default sw_params for a plugin pipeline should be made sort of
recursive or "something else".

I'll start to try to find a way to deal with with this first case and will
start to investigate those internal sw_params uses.

Meanwhile, below is the modified patch.

cheers,
