Well, if you need sound in multiple applications, you need to configure that under alsa in that file. If you have more than one or two speaker, you need to configure that in this file and so on. But true, if you just have one audio source and one or two speakers, you don't need that file /usually/. > > Another problem are the kernel panics that happens very often within > > alsa.

It is only alsa that adds instability in all kernels, independend if they are from the distribution or if they are self compiled. And if you have a look at the code of alsa, you do not wounder about this instabilities. > You can try asking on the Linux Audio Users mailing list. No. I wrote some bug reports years ago but currently I don't care anymore. There is a far better sound system with OSS4 that is just working, has sound multiplexing without fiddling with some broken config files and much better sound quality. And I gave alsa several tries in the past, not only one.
