[Alsa-user] how to redirect all sound to an external DAC?

[George N. <gn...@cm...>]

Hi all,

I purchased a DIY external DAC that shows up in dmesg as:
[64233.769968] usbcore: registered new interface driver snd-usb-audio

I can redirect my XMMS sound to it by switching the ALSA audio device to 
hw:1,0 (Burr-Brown Japan PCM2702: USB Audio).

But, I would still like the sound redirected to my speakers.  Likewise, 
I do not want to have to go to each application and try to redirect to 
the DAC when I'm using it.

I simply want all sound to work normally with my speakers, and 
additionally be redirected/copied to my DAC.

I'd greatly appreciate any help!

Thanks!
George
