Hmm... I did all that and saved it... then tried running the alsaplayer command with the options you showed and here's what I got in return.
ALSA lib pcm.c:1963: (snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM ch4dup snd_pcm_open: No such file or directory (ch4dup) /usr/lib/alsaplayer/output/libalsa.so failed to load I could not find a suitable output mosule on your system. Make sure they're in "usr/lib/alsaplayer/output/". Use the -o parameter to select one. failed to load output add-on. exiting... Hmm... I don't get some of this stuff... sorry. Any thoughts?
