I think you can just create a .asoundrc in your home directory that makes dmix or speex part of your default and this
mixing will occur automatically in alsa as well. I don't have one, so can't post details, but that is theoretically
supposed to work with alsa.
pcm.!default {
speex
plughw:0,0
}
might work. And might not. :-)
I have tested this extensively with several music players, and set to
alsa, they consume less than 5% CPU, and set to pulse they use 17%.
Set to alsa they perform flawlessly, while blocking all other audio.
Your symptoms sound like you have pulse running at a different frame rate than the music. Thus it is doing on the fly
resampling. This would explain the high cpu usage.
