Support for nForce 2 chipset (Shuttle, Slackware 9.1) appears broke
with xine 0.96 after ALSA 0.9.6. XMMS et all still working fine.

Any changes to .asound as mentioned above cause any audio app to lock up.
I have had to remove .asound and use defaults.

I am _desperately_ trying to convert standard 2 channel audio to
Dolby Digital stream in XMMS and pass through instead of passing
2 channel through IEC958 and having to use ESP effect on my
external AMP.

I see ALSAMIXER has duplication options and send analog to IEC958,
which would be perfect, but none of those controls work. :(
