I desperatly needed 4-channel audio out on my Quattro on Linux and I know, lots of others needed that, too. So I made an ugly hack without actually hoping it would work at all, but interestingly it did work.
finally someone managed to get a quattro working with 0.37 ... just a week before i'll buy an rme ;-)
You might run into a very similar problem, maybe exactly the same. (But then, exactly the same "solution" could work)
anyway, good job ...
Not good, dirty.
I was thinking of a slightly less dirty solution: How about allowing the option -audiodev be negative (-1) for ALSA and if it is negative, just select the ALSA device "default" inside Pd. Then one could redefine "default" in asoundrc to be any PCM of choice, like:
# use q4b as default: pcm.!default pcm.q4b
Or we could just aggree on a special name for a Pd ALSA device, like
pcm.pd { ... }
Just some ideas...
