I think it is important to understand where people like > Markus come from. I suspect he's completely blind. Sorry, I'm pretty sure from previous mails from Markus that his main issue is a certain hardware his company sells which requires root to be able to access pulseaudio, some TV-sort thingy. He's mentioned this repeatedly in the months I've been on this list. Sorry I can't help more with your issue, I've been reading the conversations about it and think you have a point, but it'll be quite a bit of work to get things working. It may perhaps be better to use alsa with dmix as markus has suggested.
