How can I tell KDE 3.2 (or arts, rather) to use the ALSA device hw:0,1 instead of the default one (hw:0,0)?
In the KDE control center, under sounds & Multimedia > Sound System > Hardware tab, I've tried to add 'hw:0,1' to the "Override device location" text box, but that doesnt seem to work (it doesnt' seem to 'understand' that syntax).
I've also tried telling it to use the device file thats supposed to correspond to hw:0,1 (/dev/pcmC0D1p), but I think you can't use it directly in ALSA like with OSS. (it also produces an error).
Thanks!!
Refried.
PS. I don't want to tell arts to use ALSA's OSS emulation, as that, for some reason makes arts use 100% CPU, and then eventualy crash with the dreaded 'CPU overload' error.
