There is an ALSA tool called aoss. What this does is hook any calls the application does to fopen/fwrite/fread/fclose/open/close/read/write/ioctl etc. and detects any calls to open /dev/dsp and /dev/mixer and diverts them to use alsa-lib. This therefore manages to divert the applications use of /dev/dsp before it even reaches the kernel. This therefore gives the application full use of all the alsa-lib features. So, for example, 4-channel output would work in this mode. But, and this is the bit we need help with, if the application uses dlopen to dynamically open a plugin, the plugin's calls to open/close/read/write etc. are not hooked, so the application fails. Is there any way to also hook the IO calls of dlopened plugins?
