dmix is the only way to do that, unless you include running PulseAudio with
the loopback device.
its also getting pretty silly when you're trying to use ALSA dmix or
PulseAudio to mix multiple non-JACK-aware applications into a psuedo-device
that communicates with JACK, given that device sharing is (partially) what
JACK was intended for in the first place.
