Hi again, I am listing the pcm devices, and for the USB mic of my webcam, I get input (IOID=Input) pcm devices for surroundX/frontspeakers/IEC958, which are actually output pcm devices. Why those output pcm devices are hinted as input devices?? Is this expected? Bug? If not, how am I supposed to select the proper input pcm devices the right(tm) way ? regards, -- Sylvain
