Hello,
I have a multiseat setup which is missing the separated sound feature, for
that I've bought a usb sound card.
now I have two cards, the O\B one and the usb one.
both cards do work (tested them using mplayer) so I've went to devise a way to
try and assign them, the best idea that I've cameup is to use .asoundrc so I
created the following file:
pcm.!default { type hw card 0 } ctl.!default { type hw card 0 } while testing
I've discovered that if card is set to 0, I get this: MPlayer2 2.0-467-ga816810
(C) 2000-2012 MPlayer Team Playing /mnt/storage/audio/Anastacia - Left Outside
