What's the difference ? This works fine with plug:dmix, but I would like to know if this device is available on all soundcards ? On my Via 686b, when I tried to open "plughw:0,0,0", and then "plughw:0,0,1", the second snd_pcm_open hangs...
But now, when using "plug:dmix", the snd_pcm_hw_set_buffer_size fails. Is this a normal behavior ?
