Yes, it's a problem with Pd's ALSA code. What's even worse than the latency issue, which I could live with, is that it isn't possible to select ALSA pcms by name. You're stuck with hw:0, plughw:0, hw:1, plughw:1, and so on. This basically makes it impossible to use Pd with asoundrc tweaks and thus with some more advanced multichannel setups in ALSA mode. These are known problems. I lack the ALSA knowledge to do anything about it and those who have the knowledge lack the time, but it would be great if those issues could be sorted out some time. I'm sure, they will, though. ciao -- Frank Barknecht _ ______footils.org__
