Summary:                    dmix plugin doesn´t work with OSS kernel emulation
Description: 
I hope this isn´t misplaced here, but IMHO this is a bug in the
architecture. Many people have those crappy AC97 codecs without hardware
mixing and want to use OSS apps beside their ALSA ones (like teamspeak
together with games). dmix works but not with the kernel emulation, and
"aoss" is not easy enough for newbies and also doesn´t work with all
apps.
So will dmix support be added to the kernel OSS emulation layer?+

It's not possible because dmix runs in userspace.  The solution is for the
distros to run all OSS apps with "aoss" so newbies don't have to deal with
it at all.  If aoss does not work with some apps it's either a bug in aoss
or a bug in those apps and should be reported here.
