Greetings:
Btw, I recently discovered kasound, a configuration utility for creating
a custom .asoundrc file. It's here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/kasound/
Alas, it's KDE-dependent and I'm out of date with current KDE. However,
it does address another one of my Linux audio botherations: A lack of
GUI-based ALSA configuration utilities.
I'm glad Clemens Ladisch is here to help, but it would be sweet to have
a utility for writing a custom modules.conf too.
Best,
dp
