on my machine it returns:

echo aio-register | ecasound -c |grep alsa
32. ^alsa$, handled by "ALSA named PCM device". (params: label,pcm_name)
33. ^alsa_06$, handled by "ALSA named PCM device". (params: label,pcm_name)
34. ^alsahw$, handled by "ALSA PCM device". (params: label,card,device,subdevice)
35. ^alsahw_06$, handled by "ALSA PCM device". (params: label,card,device,subdevice)
36. ^alsaplugin$, handled by "ALSA PCM device". (params: label,card,device,subdevice)
37. ^alsaplugin_06$, handled by "ALSA PCM device". (params: label,card,device,subdevice)
