I tried what was suggested in Fr�d�ric's mail.
Unfortunately the second sound device only offers one playback channel, so 
it's not possible play several PCMs at once any more...
That's what the playback: 4 in
# cat /proc/asound/pcm
00-00: VIA 8235 : VIA 8235 : playback 4 : capture 1
00-01: VIA 8235 : VIA 8235 : playback 1 : capture 1
means then.
Isn't there any documentation on this?
I would really appreciate if someone could finally sort this trouble out 
since there are a lot of people who use a VIA8233+.

Thanks.
Gregor
