I do not have the /dev/dsp, however I have other audio apps such as xmms working properly. How can I correct this situation? I was under the impression that /dev/dsp is specific to oss, not alsa?
This is with an maudio audiophile 2496 pci card and kernel 2.6.4 with alsa drivers.
the only suggestion i have for you is not to use any other audio api on linux than jack...
cheers... tim
