So, I don't know...
I have alsa in the kernel (2.6.16.7 it's alsa-1.0.11) and it works for 
all devices... Probably I have a bad dmix configuration (the default 
one...)... Have you a idea how can I check the dmix configuration? I 
remember you I can't use midi because I have a SBLive!5.1 (it worked 
never...), but my audio system works properly...
Thanks, Luigi
