how to make a custom asound.conf part - OlafM - 12-13-2024

I like to add system sound. As I do not want to interrupt the MPD, I like to use dmix and add an channel which plays the system sounds. I tried to figure out, how the asound.Conf file is built up. However, these have a heading "Managed by Moode", which I do not like to modify.  How can I do this in a proper way? And I do understand, that from sound quality the dmix is not appreciated. But for this particular project it is valuable. Thanks for your guidenance.

By system sounds do you mean something like beep when a button is pressed?

Moode routes audio using ALSA configs in /etc/alsa/conf.d/ These are managed scripts and should not be hand modified otherwise breakage will occur.

I think there are other ALSA conf files in various locations but these are whatever gets installed with Bookworm Lite and moode doesn't touch them.

Indeed, system sound are like a beep when button pressed. Unfortunately Up till now, I did not manage to get the dmix work, without touching the ALSA configs in /etc/alsa/conf.d/ . So, I have to find another way to have the system sounds.
