Hi cbxbiker61,
Is there any way around the alsa audio device being blocked by XBMC or is that an Alsa limitation?
When XBMC is running I cannot use VLC passthrough, even when XBMC is not playing anything.
I know in the past that one of the reasons for pulse being implemented in Ubuntu and other distributions was because of the limitations of other audio drivers sharing the hardware, but pulse audio is the device that is selected in XBMC (which I know is just passing it through to Alsa), but it isn't playing nicely with other software...
