(Ooops. Forgot to reply to the list as well...) Hi Doug, I'm definitely not an ALSA expert, but I am aware there are ways that should do what you want. The following answer assumes you are _NOT_ running PulseAudio. If you are running PulseAudio, you'll probably need answers from someone who knows PulseAudio. If you do "aplay -l", you will see a listing of your sound units by device names. If you do "aplay -L", you will see a listing of your sound units by PCM names. Make a note of both name forms for each of your units. Most ALSA clients have a -d or -D option that takes one of the name forms. Apparently, some require one name form and some require the other. Try both forms and use whichever works. Once you find which name form works with the client in question, simply use the name of the sound unit to direct sound there. If you have a client with absolutely no way to specify a sound unit to use, you could use separate user accounts, each with a .soundrc file that directs ALSA to use a given device as the default audio device. There is documentation on the details to do that, probably better than I could remember to tell you.
