Since the 1.0 packaging we automatically set the default pcm control to use pulseaudio if pulseaudio is running, which makes alsa programs automatically do the right thing for most people. I need to check if there is a workaround to be able to handing parameters like the one you're trying to pass. A solution for you should be to use device=plughw:1 to play back on your second device. In any case lowering the severity to important, critical is far over the top for this one :) -- Sjoerd Simons <sjo...@luon.net> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
