Okay, I created that file in my home directory, opened alsaplayer with the flag/options you suggested. ALSA opened just fine but didn't open the particular file I pointed it to... and when I selected a file via point-n-click, only 2 of the 4 speakers were working still. As I said, I had to create the ,.asoundrc file and I put those lines in there you suggested. Nothing else is in there. Getting closer, you think? Todd
