Does it perhaps only apply in the process that issues the command? That would
make it apply when run from the command-line, and (appear to) fail when you run
it in a subshell, which is what happens when you call a script.
The man page doesn't say, so try making it a shell function,
alsa_me() {
alsa_out -j secondInterface -d hw:3 -c 6
}
and then call that from the command-line.

Ok, just added the path /usr/bin to the command but it didn't help. Still a
mystery?

I'm having trouble with a simple script. It adds a second sounccard. This
command works on the command line but not in a script. Any ideas why?
Did you specify the full path to the command in the script?
