Let me clarify: the real issue is *mixing* normal stereo out the L and R channels, while a mono channel is also coming out the center speaker. So, like dmix, but dmix only works with the first 2 channels? Any solutions short of using JACK?
The following fragment works to drive only the center channel, but other ALSA players block. pcm.voice { type plug slave { pcm "surround51" } ttable.0.4 1 } I have dmix / asym working fine for normal stereo. Again, thanks! John John W.
