Every one I've used has done so (Aureal Vortex2, CS4614, c-media, etc). I don't know if it's the rule but it seems like fairly common behavior from my experience. In any case it's really not a big deal, just that ALSA's OSS emulation seems to be divergent from the typical OSS driver's behavior in that regard. -- Ryan Underwood, <nemesis at icequake.net>, icq=10317253 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Parasoft Error proof Web apps, automate testing & more.
