Is this another one of your open-ended questions where you already know of the problems with your question and the potential solutions, but you actually have a bug using one of the solutions? If so, can I have some more money? ;-) Well, basically, only a very small subset of audio devices out there (some older Creative soundblaster cards, and some newer pro audio cards) have hardware mixing on-chip. ALSA's default raw interfaces do not provide any software mixing, so unless the hardware supports hardware mixing and the driver takes advantage of that, you won't have the ability to open multiple streams at once on *any* ALSA device. That's why we have: 1. Dmix, and 2. PulseAudio. There is ample documentation out there about how to set up and configure dmix and pulseaudio. To add dmix to your example, you would just have to define a dmix instance with a slave of your softvol PCM, and a dsnoop device with a slave of the softvol device. If softvol doesn't work this way, try making the slave the headset device. Pulseaudio could also use the raw headset device in module-alsa-sink. Have you tried these with no success? If so, what sorts of issues are you getting? I just thought I'd point out that, with the configuration you posted, there is no expectation that you'll get any sort of mixing of streams at all; that's by design. But based on your previous posts I think you already know that...?
