Hi,
I am trying to capture audio being played through ALSA on my Raspberry Pi.
I got the loopback device working (sending audio through it and
recording it on the other side):
```
maurus@raspy:~$ aplay -D loopback a2002011001-e02.wav
Playing WAVE 'a2002011001-e02.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate
44100 Hz, Stereo
^CAborted by signal Interrupt...
maurus@raspy:~$ arecord -D loopback -f S16_LE -r 44100 -c 2 out.wav
Recording WAVE 'out.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz, Stereo
^CAborted by signal Interrupt...
maurus@raspy:~$ aplay -D tv out.wav
Playing WAVE 'out.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz, Stereo
^CAborted by signal Interrupt...
```
However when trying to play audio through a multi device, I get the
following error:
```
maurus@raspy:~$ aplay -D monitor a2002011001-e02.wav
Playing WAVE 'a2002011001-e02.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate
44100 Hz, Stereo
aplay: pcm_params.c:170: snd1_pcm_hw_param_get_min: Assertion
`!snd_interval_empty(i)' failed.
Aborted by signal Aborted...
```
This is my config:
```
pcm.tv {
type plug
slave.pcm "plughw:CARD=ALSA,DEV=1"
}
pcm.loopback {
type plug
slave.pcm {
type asym
playback.pcm {
type dmix
ipc_key 1234
slave.pcm "hw:CARD=Loopback0,DEV=0"
}
capture.pcm {
type dsnoop
ipc_key 1235
slave.pcm "hw:CARD=Loopback0,DEV=1"
}
}
}
pcm.monitor {
type plug
slave.pcm {
type multi
slaves {
a { pcm "tv"; channels 2 }
b { pcm "loopback"; channels 2 }
}
bindings {
0 { slave a; channel 0 }
1 { slave a; channel 1 }
2 { slave b; channel 0 }
3 { slave b; channel 1 }
}
master 0
}
route_policy "duplicate"
# ttable {

# [0.0 1.0 0.0 1.0] # right -> a.right, b.right
# }
}
```

Does anyone have any clue how to get this config working?
Thanks,
