I have pcm[012]p under /proc/asound/card0. pcm[12]p/info say they have subdevices_avail: 1 (artsd is on pcm0p, I guess). Does that mean that I should have other interfaces to the card? If so, how do I use them? pocket-> cat /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/info card: 0 device: 0 subdevice: 0 stream: PLAYBACK id: CMI8738-MC6 name: C-Media PCI DAC/ADC subname: subdevice #0 class: 0 subclass: 0 subdevices_count: 1 subdevices_avail: 0 pocket-> cat /proc/asound/card0/pcm1p/info card: 0 device: 1 subdevice: 0 stream: PLAYBACK id: CMI8738-MC6 name: C-Media PCI 2nd DAC subname: subdevice #0 class: 0 subclass: 0 subdevices_count: 1 subdevices_avail: 1 pocket-> cat /proc/asound/card0/pcm2p/info card: 0 device: 2 subdevice: 0 stream: PLAYBACK id: CMI8738-MC6 name: C-Media PCI IEC958 subname: subdevice #0 class: 0 subclass: 0 subdevices_count: 1 subdevices_avail: 1 TTFN, Lonnie Borntreger
