Hi, I have a similar problem with my "Terratec Aureon Sky" soundcard (with the snd_ice1724 driver). Here is how it is listed by lspci:
0000:00:0c.0 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies Inc. VT1720/24 [Envy24PT/HT] PCI Multi-Channel Audio Controller (rev 01) I have no .asoundrc or /etc/asound.conf file and dmix does not work: a second program that tries to output sound blocks. I tried this patch: https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/file_download.php?file_id=969&type=bug that I applied to the /usr/share/alsa/cards/ICE1724.conf file. dmix still does not work. Let me add that dmix used to work with older versions of alsa and the sample dmix configuration given in /usr/share/doc/libasound2/examples/asound.conf_dmix. This is therefore a regression.
