in my asound.conf i added a pcm.dmixer and added these options:

rate 96000

channels 6

Then i added a pcm.!default pcm.dmixer line.
Now they play!  What's even better is that i actually seems to be

*upsampling*!  Regular old 16/44.1 flac files have a lot more detail.

Listening to them with the dmixer set up that way i can hear performers

breathing.  It's not a subtle difference.  I asked my partner to come into the

room and listen (with out telling her what i was switching off/on and she said

"Wow! That one sounds so much more alive!"  This is something that is

normally reserved for multi-thousand dollar cd players and i'm doing it for

nothing! I love you Alsa!
My avi movie files loose sound when i have the pcm.dmixer on, but big deal. i

can just uncomment that default line and save the file. I've got the file open

via screen+emacs so no big deal.
