For the digi9652 I use the snd_rme9652 module (the hdsp9652 config was just as an example from the www)

You only need the multi plugin if you want to combine two or more soundcards in one logic device.

The RME card is the first in the PC (card 0): ~> cat proc/asound/cards 0 [R15 ]: RME9652 - RME Digi9652 (Rev 1.5) RME Digi9652 (Rev 1.5) at 0xda000000, irq 177 Here's a device definition in my .asoundrc: pcm.test_mono { type plug ttable.0.10 0.1 slave.pcm { type hw card 0 } route_policy copy } Then aplay some_mono_testfile.wav -D test_mono plays through the 3rd channel of the second adat output as expected.
