and some further information. the output from -L
Output devices:

2: iec958

the output when squeezeslave is started with '-d all'
Starting Squeezeslave: proto_thread: state=1
proto_thread: PROTO_CLOSED cond_wait
http_thread state 2
decoder_thread: STREAM_STOPPED first_time:1
Using audio device index: 0

I have attached an image which shows what my pulseaudio sound
controller looks like while squeezeslave and XBMC are running, as you
will see, even with -o set to 6 squeezeslave doesnt appear to use pulse
at all.

this is my .asoundrc file (my final attempts to try to fool squeezelave
into using pulseaudio, copied from somebody else but I suspect its
flawed for my purposes)

# Part I directly from ALSA Dmix Wiki

pcm.paul { # paul is my name, you can use your name, just make sure you
use it below too
type dmix
ipc_key 1024
slave {
pcm "hw:0,0"     
period_time 0
period_size 1024
buffer_size 8192
#format "S32_LE"
#periods 128
rate 44100
}
}

pcm.dsp0 {
type plug
slave.pcm "paul"
}

# This following device can fool some applications into using
pulseaudio
pcm.dsp1 {
type plug
slave.pcm "pulse"
}

ctl.mixer0 {
type hw
card 0
}

# Part II directly from Pulseaudio Wiki

pcm.pulse {
type pulse
}

ctl.pulse {
type pulse
}

# Optional, set defaults

pcm.!default {
type pulse
}

ctl.!default {
type pulse
}

Please, I would appreciate any assistance, this is the final little
piece of my mediacentre solution and I cant seem to make any progress.
I have gone so far as to remove pulse all together but that just ended
in tears. 
I refuse to believe there isnt a solution to this, I was reasonably
sure this would be a common type of setup using squeezeslave?

thanks
Paul
