Whatever I do, neither "mpg321 -o alsa -a hw:1,0" nor "mpg321 -o alsa -a hw:0,2" do something different than "Can't open libao driver with device hw:1,0 (is device in use?)". I have chmodded /usr/bin/pulseaudio to 000 and killed the running daemon, and fuser /dev/snd/* doesn't output anything. Otoh, with an alsamixer running, fuser /dev/snd/* says that /dev/snd/controlC2 is in use by that process. What other things can be the reason for mpg321 -o alsa -a hw:0,2" not working? I have uploaded a new alsa-info.sh output to http://paste.debian.net/352244/ valid until 12/23.
