Thank you all who replied my last messages.
Now I am back to plain alsa, but no two programs can use it at the same time. Alsa drivers are built on the kernel, and I have the following packages installed:
media-libs/alsa-lib-1.0.24.1:0 media-plugins/gst-plugins-alsa-0.10.35:0.10 media-sound/alsa-utils-1.0.24.2-r1:0.9
The two first ones were puled by emerging "alsa-utils".
I have lost "/etc/asound.conf", and I guess this is the key. Looking to which package it belongs to, "equery" found none. I have put a quite simple version (as explained here: http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/ALSA#Default_Sound_Device) http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/ALSA#Default_Sound_Device%29>::
pcm.!default { type hw card Intel }
ctl.!default { type hw card Intel }
Any hints on how can I get all programs to mix up as before?
Thanks again Francisco

I build my audio drivers into my kernel. I also have these alsa related packages installed:
root@fireball / # equery list *alsa* * Searching for *alsa* ... [IP-] [ ] media-libs/alsa-lib-1.0.24.1:0 [IP-] [ ] media-plugins/gst-plugins-alsa-0.10.35:0.10 [IP-] [ ] media-sound/alsa-headers-1.0.24:0 [IP-] [ ] media-sound/alsa-utils-1.0.24.2-r1:0.9 [IP-] [ ] media-sound/alsamixergui-0.9.0.1.2-r4:0 root@fireball / #
See if yours looks something like this. I can watch videos and other programs play sound at the same time.

Miss the compile output? Hint: EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--quiet-build=n"
In another machine I have at the office, sound works great without ever having pulse installed. And there is no "/etc/asoud.whatever"
I will recompile the kernel to remove a loop device that is going default every time.
Will post the results. Thanks Francisco
