One more question: with this in place, should alsa-enabled applications "just work?" aplay works beautifully, but all of my other apps (xmms, xine, mplayer) have trouble. Does plug:dmix act differently such that other apps might not be able to use it? For example, "mplayer -ao alsa9:default <some_file>" gives: alsa-init: requested format: 44100 Hz, 2 channels, Signed 16-bit (Little-Endian) alsa-init: soundcard set to default alsa-init: unable to set periodsize: Invalid argument Could not open/initialize audio device -> no sound. xmms starts up but I get no audio output.
