    That isn't good.  Default automatically runs the sound through dmix.
    And it has a set frame rate of
    48000.  Other rates are software resampled.  I want to avoid that and
    only use the hardware sample rates
    so that there is no resampling on the sound.

    Is there a way to configure sound with pulse audio to avoid this,
    or do
    I have to remove pulse audio in order to
    get direct access to alsa?

    Thanks.


try running pasuspend before running your app.


I don't find that app. I find pasuspender, but it wants me to connect to a server. I installed everything pulseaudio related except for the esound compatibility module. That had a conflict with esound which is already installed. Haven't tried removing pulseaudio yet, I suppose that is next. Unless you have any other suggestions?
