Hi, I am *really* interested to see if dmix is right for me.
I have been setting up my sound system in Linux for 2 weeks now. I've got it to the point where I can play sounds and use the MIC. I really want to get all of the applications to work without using a sound daemon. I am frustrated with the documentation regarding dmix and so far, have only heard that people have not got dmix to do what I want it to. I am hoping that dmix is the solution to my sound daemon problems. My questions are... 1. Does dmix get between /dev/dsp and the sound driver to do mixing at the software level? 2. Can I set up my machine so that this happens? 3. Will this allow N applications to open /dev/dsp, so I can run more than one application that produces sound at a time. 4. How does the other /dev/ music devices fit into this? 5. Has anyone ever got this to work? I am very grateful for ALSA, as it seems to be the only solution to all of my sound problems in Linux.
