I assumed ecasound simply utilized ALSA in native mode, but when I
checked .ecasoundrc I found /dev/midi instead of /dev/snd/midiC0D0 so I
made the substitution. The problem no longer occurs, but the effect in
the example is rather subtle or I'm not doing something else correctly.
Kai, can you whip up something I could try that would create a more
dramatic effect ? I'll try hacking something together here too, but my
experience with ecasound is still too limited to know for sure what I'm
doing.
