Hello, I've found many people who struggle to get this card working, and a few people asking about what I want, but I've not found a working asound.conf that addresses this. I'm trying to get both spdif and analog working at the same time, as the default device. Here's what I have so far, which works for both (if I uncomment "dmixer2" spdif works, if I comment it out analog works): pcm.!default { type plug slave.pcm "dmixer1" # slave.pcm "dmixer2" } pcm.dmixer1 { type dmix ipc_key 1024 slave { pcm "hw:0,0" format S32_LE period_time 0 period_size 1024 buffer_size 4096 #rate 44100 } bindings { 0 0 1 1 } } ctl.dmixer1 { type hw card 0 device 0 } pcm.dmixer2 { type dmix ipc_key 1025 slave { pcm "hw:0,1" format S32_LE period_time 0 period_size 1024 buffer_size 4096 #rate 44100 } bindings { 0 0 1 1 } } ctl.dmixer2 { type hw card 0 device 1 } I'm thinking that the plugins multi, copy, or route just won't do what I want. Well 'multi' might, but I haven't quite figured that one out yet... What's the best way to do this? I do have another (onboard) sound device that, in theory, I could bind together with the ice1724 card and use for analog output, but that seems messy. I also imagine that this card is of a higher quality.
