Hi. I am new to this list and new to ALSA. I am very excited about
using ALSA and was hoping that someone here might be able to provide
some help.
I wrote an application using all of the recommended functions specified
by the two tutorials posted on the ALSA web site under "Developer
tutorials". However, I have not been able to successfully open a PCM
device for capture (or playback or anything else). The "PCM name"
specified under Dr. Nagorni's tutorial seems to be a very unusual way of
naming a device. In his tutorial, he mentions that "plughw:0,0" might
be appropriate. I tried exactly that and am not seeming to get
anywhere. My guess is that the actual name is generated somehow by the
snd_pcm_open utility.
I have a number of devices in my /dev/snd/ directory but none are called
"plughw". How is an appropriate PCM device's name formed?

P.S. If it helps any, I have an ASUS A8N motherboard that uses the
nVidia nForce4 chips for sound.
