I tried this in my .asoundrc:

pcm.!card0 {
        type plug
        slave.pcm "dmixer"
        }

pcm.dmixer  {
        type dmix
        ipc_key 1024
        slave {
            pcm "hw:1,0"
            period_time 0
            period_size 1024
            buffer_size 4096
            rate 44100
                }
        bindings {
            0 0
            1 1
                }
        }

ctl.dmixer {
        type hw
        card 0
        }

And it seems to work (just simple tests made). Maybe there is a better
solution? I don't know much about ALSA.

Thanks
