It just complains about everything I try. I struggled with this about a month or two ago, coming from your same perspective. As far as I know, these are the pcm devices: "hw:N,M": the Nth card, with the Mth pcm device. N and M start with 0. this device does not use the software plugin layer. "default": uses the software plugin layer to resample and fold/multiply channels, if necessary. plays on the first card iirc. this is usually what you want. "front": just the front two speakers on your first card. "surround40" and "surround51": 4.0 and 5.1 surround respectively. There are a number more. I would look closely at /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf, as it lists them. Hopefully this should give you a start. And please, if any of this is wrong, let me know. wingo _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-devel
