> which works, but blocks the whole device. Should I hope for better ? Probably not, since the card doesn't do hardware mixing I suspect you can either play a single stereo source or a single 6-channel source. You could look into dmix, which should allow you to open the front and rear PCMs at the same time, and dmix would mix them into a single 6-channel source.
Of course thanks to the wonderful ALSA configuration format this is easier said than done ;-) Cheers, Adam. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
