I would suggest first clearing up that alsa consists of three parts [i added a short article to the wiki [alsatips - introduction]]: the kernel modules - either compiled seperatly or part of the kernel source the alsa-lib - needs to be compiled seperatly in any case userspace programs like aoss, alsamixer, aplay, etc... After that an in depth discussion on what each part does could follow: kernel modules: what do the alsa core modules do? which drivers are available [link to the soundcard matrix]? Which special purpose modules like virmidi are available and what do they do? what does all this acore/seq, acore/oss, etc.. stuff do? OSS emu.. alsa-lib: The pcm plugins and .asoundrc and /etc/alsa.conf are part of alsa lib. so discussion of dmix, dsnoop, multi, etc is done in this section.. I woudl also like to know: Is this plugin interface available for ctl's too? can i fake a pcm-control that really adjusts a pcm plugin's volume [so that xmms doesn't alter my cards pcm volume but only its own stream]... userspace progs: which purpose does each of them have? example of usege, etc...
