Using ALSA without a sound card?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Greetings,

I'm researching an accessibility project with the goal of transforming things like syslog entries and system monitor data into different kinds of sounds.  The goal is to allow visually impaired people to "hear" the status of different components rather than rely on a screen reader.  The sound would then be transmitted through a wireless device to the individual's ear.  Is an ALSA driver available that emulates an actual sound card, or is it possible to use ALSA without a physical sound card?  I'd like to be able to do the data-to-sound conversion on a server that doesn't have a sound card installed, and then stream it using icecast or somesuch.  Can this be done with ALSA?

Thank you,

Travis
