You'd need it to activate dmix, but sample rate/format conversion
already works with earlier versions.

This disables all automatic conversions.

Well, it always worked because mplayer does it itself.

Please try this:

    pcm.!default = "plughw:0"

And if this works, there is something wrong with you default device
definitions.  Please tell us the driver name and whether it has a file
in /usr/share/alsa/cards/.
