Indeed, one side might be locked if few substreams are used in same time, because it is using shared lock. But, I think I need to use it since it is using shared register. And, I'm confusing that what is the problem in this case ? Do you mean I shoudn't use "trigger" ? _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
