You are concerned about your precious audio quality? Me too. Most people,
however, are using god-awful plastic speakers for twenty euros and shitty
onboard sound chips. Sad but true.
Exactly, which is why mixing has been default for some time now for most
cards. Are you only ranting about how it should've been earlier?
ALSA appeared in 1999, KDE 2 with aRtsd (another catastrophic failure of
technology) was released in october 2000.

That sounds like a minor glitch that should be easily remedied if you
file a proper bug report. Have you tried?
No, I kinda gave up on ALSA after reading its API (rather "functions
that happen to be exported") documentation and kinda hoped it would go away
ASAP.
You give up reporting small hardware problems that bother you because the
application developer documentation for something is not in great shape?
What an odd thing to do. And what a shame that this thread apparently was
unable to outlive it's originator troll and turn useful...
