So there's no way around this? I don't have an SPDIF-out, so that's not
really an option for me. I just want to use the same control for MythMusic
as I do for MythTV -- you'd think this would be the norm. No way to compile
MythMusic with ALSA, or to make its OSS controls work on a machine using
ALSA drivers?
