Yes, it means that asound should not need touching anymore unless custom requirements are needed, such as outputting to more then one sound card.
@goga777 - Have you even tried AE yet? No pulse, win32, osx support, passthrough broken, ac3 transcode broken, paplayer seek broken.... it will be merged after these things are fixed, and it has been extensively tested. I am not scared of SVN - Cutting my hands open on the bleeding edge.

well, most of paplayer's codecs are functioning again, paplayer is now bit perfect. Also tracked down some memory leaks, etc... and patched in most of the passthrough layer, if you want more details have a look at the changelog.

I've been playing with this branch a bit and have audio playing under Windows with a WASAPI sink I wrote. It works in both shared and exclusive mode (selected with a boolean toggle in the settings menu) so it should be the only needed sink for Vista/7 systems and thus should avoid polluting the selection list with overly long and duplicate device names.
I've also made some small changes needed to compile under Windows. I'm not sure if you are interested in seeing patches at this point or if you would prefer to wait until development settles down. |

gnif,
Luigi and I are trying to find a way to auto configure alsa in a way that all devices will be used (digital, sp/dif and hdmi). Do you have any thoughts on this or perhaps you can implement something that makes it very easy to output to multiple audio devices. Hope you can help! |

No, multiple output to multiple cards is a technical nightmare, there is NO way to make this work properly, just achieving low latency on one output is hard, let alone on multiple. And then keeping them in sync would be an even bigger nightmare, the way audio hardware is designed makes this infeasible, and out of the scope of XBMC.

And Im pretty sure pulseaudio already is able to do that so if you need it use pulseaudio
