look for a package called alsa-plugins in your package manager. then the trick you tried in ~/.asoundrc will probably work. # convert alsa API over jack API # use it with # % aplay foo.wav # use this as default pcm.!default { type plug slave { pcm "jack" } } ctl.mixer0 { type hw card 1 } # pcm type jack pcm.jack { type jack playback_ports { 0 system:playback_1 1 system:playback_2 } capture_ports { 0 system:capture_1 1 system:capture_2 } } _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
