Thanks for those precisions :-)
So I guess that in some ways, having nothing whatsoever related to ALSA in
Red Hat Linux does make things easier. The main concern is to then have
ALSA support in the applications, but most of my packages provide that with
their "--with alsa" rpmrebuild option.

All this will get so much easier once stable kernels used by Linux
distributions come with ALSA by default ;-)
