Hi there,

I don't know what the OSS mixer for the rme9652 is for, it appears I have
one too if I insert snd-mixer-oss and snd-pcm-oss.

I would encourage the following:

Use the CVS version of alsa since the 0.5.x hammerfall design is quite
different than current.

The RME9652 does not have a mixer on board, so it will not be possible to
change volume etc with amixer application, you have to do it within your
asoundrc file or cause the application to output its PCM samples with low
amplitude.

I would encourage not using the OSS compatibility layer with the RME9652,
rather use the aoss library.  If you have the source to your applications
wishing to use the rme9652, simply link them with their libraries plus the
aoss library, -laoss.  The OSS compatibility layer for the RME9652 is a
bit flakey and has caused lock-ups on my machine in the past.

There is a program called Ardour (ardour.sf.net) that has been written
with the RME9652 in mind and is optimized for low latency operations.

THe CVS modules you want in the alsa repository are:

alsa-kernel, alsa-driver, alsa-lib, alsa-utils, alsa-oss, alsa-conf, and
alsa-tools.

The alsa-conf and alsa-tools are optional and aren't necessary for
anything you want to do, but are handy little programs to have
around.  Compile with the same order you compiled the drivers you have
now.

You do not appear to have lock or sync status on your ADAT ports.  Try
setting the ADAT1 input source to internal instead of ADAT1 (the last
control value in your asound.state)

You will need to obtain sync status before you can play and capture audio.

I hope this has been helpful, if not, feel free to ask more questions.

_J
