ALSA - Play Music on simultaneouse 2 sound cards
Dear Forum,
I am looking for suggestions for how can I play audio (Mythtv - Play Music) simultaneously on two sound cards using ALSA drivers. I have two cards working well. One card is an onboard Intel cards, and the other card is a USB Audio card. Both cards are working well. I use the onboard Intel to output SPDIF to an amplified. The second USB card is bound to MPD service and it outputs an analog signal to a second amplified. I'd like to have the following configuration: Play to the default card with 5.1 passthrough, while the second card, connected to a second amplifier, plays an analog signal to the same audio played by Mythtv Play Music. In other words, I need to mix somehow and play the same audio on both cards. Here is the list of cards: root@mythtv:~# aplay -L null Discard all samples (playback) or generate zero samples (capture) default:CARD=Intel HDA Intel, ALC660-VD Analog Default Audio Device front:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC660-VD Analog Front speakers surround40:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC660-VD Analog 4.0 Surround output to Front and Rear speakers surround41:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC660-VD Analog 4.1 Surround output to Front, Rear and Subwoofer speakers surround50:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC660-VD Analog 5.0 Surround output to Front, Center and Rear speakers surround51:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC660-VD Analog 5.1 Surround output to Front, Center, Rear and Subwoofer speakers surround71:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC660-VD Analog 7.1 Surround output to Front, Center, Side, Rear and Woofer speakers iec958:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC660-VD Digital IEC958 (S/PDIF) Digital Audio Output default:CARD=default USB Sound Device , USB Audio Default Audio Device front:CARD=default,DEV=0 USB Sound Device , USB Audio Front speakers surround40:CARD=default,DEV=0 USB Sound Device , USB Audio 4.0 Surround output to Front and Rear speakers surround41:CARD=default,DEV=0 USB Sound Device , USB Audio 4.1 Surround output to Front, Rear and Subwoofer speakers surround50:CARD=default,DEV=0 USB Sound Device , USB Audio 5.0 Surround output to Front, Center and Rear speakers surround51:CARD=default,DEV=0 USB Sound Device , USB Audio 5.1 Surround output to Front, Center, Rear and Subwoofer speakers surround71:CARD=default,DEV=0 USB Sound Device , USB Audio 7.1 Surround output to Front, Center, Side, Rear and Woofer speakers iec958:CARD=default,DEV=0 USB Sound Device , USB Audio IEC958 (S/PDIF) Digital Audio Output Any ideas?

i did not think that ALSA could do this .
have you looked at pulse audio |
ALSA's wiki site has examples how to do this. The following has the example.
