thanks!
i replaced Audigy2 with Intel and put it in my ~/.asoundrc.
this works so far that it doesn't do any harm until i assign some value to
ALSAPCM.
If i then restart mpd, there's no sound.
i also reintroduced snd-aloop.
first i tried with Paolo's asoundrc; but assigning Loopback to ALSAPCM does
not make sndpeek analyze the actual sound mpd is playing.
in shellspeak:
sudo modprobe snd-aloop
ALSAPCM=Loopback
export ALSAPCM
sndpeek
--- still hangs on the default soundcard's first capture device
it IS possible to get sndpeek to listen to another device - by making the
Loopback card the default.
i have achieved this, too, and told mpd to look for hw:1,0 instead of hw:0,0.
no problem with mpd, sndpeek opens hw:1,0 as expected but isn't getting any
input.
so now i am at the point where i have sndpeek listening at the right card,
but it doesn't get any input and i don't know how to influence the Loopback
card's channels.
alsamixer says This sound device does not have any controls,
the output of amixer scontrols is nil, the output of amixer controls
is a LOT, but i don't see anything pointing to my loopback card...
right now i'm using this asoundrc: from here onward:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1153194#p1153194
so i can approach this problem from different directions - i feel i'm getting
closer but something is missing still.
would Paolos suggestion even work while mpd is running? meaning i fake
sndpeek into seeing another card/device as the default while mpd is playing
sound through its own default device?
do i even have to combine this approach with a Loopback device? i think yes.

i managed earlier to create a loopback device, and it worked so-so.
but i have one stubborn application that insists on using the default

I use this default device, that can actually be pointed to any other
via environment variable.
I am not sure if it can help for your other problems, but in my system
all the application
used the correct pcm indicated by ALSAPCM.
(Change the hw:Audigy2 with your default)
pcm.!default {
type plug
slave.pcm {
@func getenv
vars [ ALSAPCM ]
default hw:Audigy2
}
