Actually what I eventually want to do is "extending" my on-board HDA to duplicate sound from any source, connected to this card, to USB headset (e.g. I have TV tuner plugged into Line In of HDA card. And I want to hear it both on speakers connected to HDA and on USB headset). As far as I can see, the exercise with multi - route - plug is not exactly that. Probably I need to play with "copy"? I've seen some advices to use Jack or Pulse instead, but I prefer "minimalistic" approach.
