Is this really correct? The impression I got was that whether dmix was the
default or not was supposed to be defined by the card-specific config
file. Otherwise it looks like people who have chips that support
hardware mixing will have to use dmix anyway.


Also does anybody know if alsa-oss is available in Fedora yet? Last time I
looked I couldn't find it, but there are some nice fixes in CVS (I would
say that ;)


Yeah, I agree with your concerns. I always use non-onboard cards with hardware
mixing where I can. I don't want to be downgraded to software mixing in those
cases. I do think they should find a way to disable it for cards that do
hardware mixing.

what cards support hardware mixing? .. from what I know of alsa it doesn't support hardware mixing of multiple streams of audio. Thats why dmix should be enabled by default.


On the flip side, I am very happy to see dmix come long to replace the crap
that is artsd and esd.

artsd and esd are for network transparent audio still. that issue is still around.
