Hm. It should. I use pulseaudio now, but when I was still using just |
| 6 |
ALSA alone, it would by default use dmix to play multiple sources at the |
| 7 |
same time. |

Check if you have ALSA configuration files and delete them (or rather |
| 10 |
move them to a backup location) |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
~/.asoundrc |
| 13 |
/etc/asoundrc |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
If any of those files exist, delete them. Reboot to be 100% sure ALSA |
| 16 |
gets rid of whatever config it was using before. The default config of |
| 17 |
ALSA should use dmix then. I think... |
| 18 |

If that doesn't help, see how each application is configured. If the |
| 20 |
audio settings of the application are set to use an ALSA hardware |
| 21 |
device, then yeah, it might block all other applications from using the |
| 22 |
sound device. Normally, you want to select the "default" ALSA device in |
| 23 |
each application's settings. |
