alsa-project/alsa-plugins issue #15 was opened from UgoPoddine: Hello everyone, a) I have installed libasound2-plugins from repository on a Debian Buster machine (4.19.0-12-rt-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT RT Debian 4.19.152-1 (2020-10-18) x86_64 GNU/Linux) and on a raspberry PI3 (5.4.79-v7+ #1373 SMP Mon Nov 23 13:22:33 GMT 2020 armv7l GNU/Linux) up-to-date (none of these running pulseaudio of course) b) I have modified my .asoundrc configuration file according to https://jackaudio.org/faq/routing_alsa.html c) I can see jack and rowjack virtual devices in aplay -L d) starting qjackctl I'm unable to see the expected new capture_x devices. Of course jack runs correctly with physical devices (eg. PC mic or USB mic) e) jack is at jackd 0.125.0rc1 version f) Alsa is at Version k4.19.0-12-rt-amd64 on the AMD64 machine, at Version k5.4.79-v7+ on the RaspberriPI machine e) any attempt of playing test files over jack device (aplay -D pcm.jack <wav file> ) generates the error : ALSA lib pcm_plug.c:1286:(_snd_pcm_plug_open) Unknown field playback_ports aplay: main:828: audio open error: Invalid argument Can you help ?
