The guys there just don't understand what you told them. If they took the time to actually read what you said, they could easily fix their problem.
Summary: - No bug in alsa.
Summary 2: There seem to be quite a lot of projects that have problems to get native alsa support right: wine, winex, arts, xmms...
xmms don't support it well for obvious reasons. They charge people for OSS drivers, so the xmms alsa driver has to look worse!
How about a "alsa application developers meeting" once per month on IRC? If that meeting would be announced on the developer mailing list of projects that are known to use alsa, this might actually help.
Just reading the docs correctly should help.
I hang out on #alsa on freenode quite a lot, and will help if I have the time.
The invitation should contain something along the line: "If you have written code to use alsa, you should participate. Either because you did it right and can help others to do so too or because you didn't and in that case you should want to improve."
