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.

Regards,
-Brad
