  Hi guys.

Is it possible to somehow mandate the
use of a PCM plugin? For example, the
PC-Speaker.conf defines the use of softvol
plugin for "default" and "front" devices.
It is still possible for the software to bypass
it by the use of "hw", and some software
does exactly that.
Is it possible to somehow make some
plugin a mandatory?
