No. They are only necessary if you want to create non-hw based or hw+sw |
| 9 |
based alsa devices. My people will have some because it used to be |
| 10 |
necessary to create a dmix device in order to enable software mixing. |

If anything, the *presence* of an asound.conf / asoundrc would be more |
| 13 |
likely to be causing trouble than the *absence* thereof. |
