Hi,
I'm experiencing a very strange behavior.

I'm using alsa 1.0.18 on a powerpc platform.

If I run the following simple code from the main of a .c file, it works 
perfectly, but if I put into a shared .so library (libaudio.so), then I 
link the main with -laudio -lasound, then the hwparams structure is not 
filled with anything, while the alsa functions don't return any error.

Do you have any clue why this could happen?

TIA
