This would be the same smix plugin that isn't in the ALSA tree then? Unless it has recently been added to CVS, i can find no trace of it in my 0.9rc trees.
Suggesting a solution that doesn't exist outside the context of 'some guy who used to work for SuSE and might have got this to work once on his own tree but didn't commit it' is not only frustrating, but also misleading. A simple 'No, ALSA is not capable of mixing multiple streams in software for playback on single-channel hardware' would have sufficed. However, now that we have established that there is no specific problem with doing this in the context of ALSA, and that it has, in fact supposedly been done, I would welcome any information on where this smix plugin might be found, and how it might be used. I feel like i'm in the Matrix - 'Do not try to use the smix plugin, there is no documentation. Instead, only try to realise the truth...The truth?...There is no smix plugin' Does anyone know abramo's (sp?) email address so that i could ask him for some information directly?
