Are you coding ALSA yourself, or using a helper library? I can recommend
Fons' zita-alsa-pcmi, latest version from:
http://kokkinizita.linuxaudio.org/linuxaudio/downloads/

Its a lightweight GPLv3 wrapper class around the ALSA API to make it easier
to use for real-time audio applications, and I have found it a pleasure to
work with.

> How can i make alsa not wait until the entire buffer is full?

I don't know the answer, because I used the zita-alsa-pcmi and just wrote
audio into the buffers :)

Cheers, -Harry
