Your right that it is not easy. I was under the impression that something like: ---- pcm.first { type hw card 0 device 0 } ctl.first { type hw card 0 } pcm.second { type hw card 1 device 0 } ctl.second { type hw card 1 } pcm_slave.sl { pcm second rate 44100 } pcm.c1 { type copy slave sl } ctl.c1 { type hw card 0 } ---- Would allow you to do what you want. The plugins docs says it will copy from master pcm to the slave pcm. I assume that the master is the first device hw:0,0. Did you try anything like the above? I would but I'm testing alsaplayer and it is having problems with releasing the ALSA pcm device currently so I have to shut down first. HTH. -- Patrick Shirkey - Boost Hardware Ltd.
