this was my first idea, too. but i'm afraid that it will lead to more conditionals (i.e. more codes) over all plugins with a slave pcm, and make the syntax more complicated. > This would solve also the annoying problem of pcm that are valid only > for one direction and should not be used (or browsed) for the other. it's also possible by defining only playback or capture pcm.playbackonly { type asym playback.pcm foo } then the rest stream will remain undefined.
