I have spent many hours attempting to get a usable dmix setup working and I just don't think its possible (at least not with my hardware). I use esd for all "consumer" level audio apps, and jackd for all professional audio apps. This is by far the simplest way to manage audio - I wouldn't waste your time with dmix. After all, what could you do with dmix that you can't do with esd?? -- Ross Vandegrift ross@lug.udel.edu "The good Christian should beware of mathematicians, and all those who make empty prophecies.
