Is there anything that you can put into .asoundrc to make OSS emulation go through dmix? MEF
Adding the following section got some OSS apps to work correctly for
me. It seems that applications that only support OSS are the most
troublesome. I don't know about skype (never used it), but artsd can be
configured to use ALSA. The following example assumes that you have
already configured a plugin for dmix/asym that is named 'asym'. If you
would like my full configuration, let me know.
pcm.dsp0 {
type plug
slave.pcm "asym"
}
ctl.mixer0 {
type hw
card 0
}
