I'm confused help me out, OSS and CoreAudio can do SS?
AFAICT CoreAudio is only available under OSx, is this the same CoreAudio?
However is seams that ALSA is also supported and can even work with PA(pulseaudio).
I've a strange setup, I've likely described it above. I'm using Spdif to a receiver for all my audio and dmix does not work in this configuration. However PA can make use of the a52 ALSA module to achieve AC3/DTS passthrough. The only drawback is that DVDs and Blu-Ray are unencoded and reencoded, but I havn't noticed an issue on this 6 core box.
Thus I'd like to use PA and currently I've got two options for PA. The winePA driver and the ALSA PA driver.

A test application would be grand!
