Package: nas
Version: 1.7-3
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
It would be neat if the attached patch could be applied to the Debian
package. It makes it easier to have sound enabled for both networked and
local applications.
If you think the patch needs more work, please let me know. If you have
a better suggestion for sharing a sound device than using alsa with
dmix, that would be interesting. Only using nas enabled applications
running locally was something I tried until now, but that's not easy.
