Hello,

I read the page titled "HOWTO ALSA Complete (includes dmix)" on gentoo-wiki.com and I've got alsa running.

My problem is with flash 7 on konqueror. If I start konqueror like this:
Code:
aoss konqueror

then I can play other stuff when flash 7 on konqueror is playing sound. But if I start konqueror normally, I can't.
My question is, do I *have* to start it with aoss? If so, what is the use of this section in the ~/.asoundrc file? (I use /etc/asound.conf instead)
Code:
pcm.!default {
    type plug
    slave.pcm "dmix"
}


Thanks.

The dmix setting in asoundrc has nothing to do with oss, which is what flash 7 is using. So yes, you have to use aoss.

But I have a better solution: install flash 9 beta. It uses alsa and overall works much better than flash 7.
