No, ALSA library does not use shell.

It contains the definitions for the PCM device names.

hw:0,0 is logical device name for alsa-lib only. The definition for hw
PCM device is stored in the alsa.conf file which should be accessible
for alsa-lib or you have to move the definition in your local ~/.asoundrc
configuration file.
Also note that you may override the location of this file with
ALSA_CONFIG_PATH environment variable. For example:
export ALSA_CONFIG_PATH=/etc/alsa/alsa.conf
To include more files:
export ALSA_CONFIG_PATH=/etc/alsa/alsa.conf:/etc/alsa/alsa1.conf
