I agree, moving to 0.9.0-rc1 was the right move, and it is rather amazing that
kdemultimedia hasn't become alsa 0.9-aware in all that time.
May I suggest though a hack in the kde-multimedia ebuild to do a USE="-alsa
oss", perhaps with an alsa-oss dependency, so that people installing KDE
don't get bit by this glitch. Once kdemultimedia is fixed by the author the
hack could then be removed, but it would make getting started with the
current librarys alot simpler for many.
Jean.
