Hi Clemens, > >> Is there any other plugin doing the same thing as dmix... but working ? > > Yes, dmix with a larger buffer size (i.e., more periods). Hmm. Yes. I've tried running aplay with "chrt --rr 99" and it got way more stable, even at as low a settings as 64 frames (period_size) + 2 periods. I can work with this, although it feels a bit unsafe having everything connected to the dmix device running with a RR scheduler (with max priority). > The dmix plugin does not do sample rate conversion, i.e., each client > connecting to it is forced to use the dmix rate.

Meaning that the plugin can take f.i. larger period_size than what the dmix device is working with ?
