There were some reports on alsa-devel concerning problems triggered by
loading libasound.so dynamically (with dlopen()). At least xine's ALSA
plugin had this problem. And ecasound does basicly the same thing so...

You can try the following patch:

ecasound/libecasound/eca-static-object-maps.cpp:
- void *plugin_handle = dlopen(file.c_str(), RTLD_NOW);
+ void *plugin_handle = dlopen(file.c_str(), RTLD_NOW | RTLD_GLOBAL);

... I'll test this myself later today.
