Could you give a bit more information?
The configuration you gave isn't very straightforward, something
really special.

So for the capture, we always ignore $DEVICE but use the fixed one,
right?
And, for the configuration, the multi plugin is superfluous. It has
only one slave, so it can be a simple route plugin. But...

... this is the hw plugin. And it means that the "default" PCM won't
work with any other configuration. We usually wrap it with plug
plugin.
Also, most of other configuration allow the multiplexing via dmix and
dsnoop. I don't know whether these would work for your systems, but
by defining the like above, the access will be exclusive.
If this is per design, it must be explained in the comments or in the
commit log (at best in both).
thanks,
Takashi
