Re: [ecasound] issues with loop device

Hello Kai

The loop device issue disappeared after I've done a recompile of
ecasound with Dominic's port naming patch. I also included
libsamplerate and libsndfile in the new compile, but besides that it's
exactly the same ecasound. I'm happy that it runs much better now, but
I have no idea why the problem disappeared.
